THE PROPERTY
Entered via a welcoming stone floored entrance hall, immediately settting the tone for the feel found throughout the home. To the rear is a useful private office with direct access to the gardens, ideal for those working from home or seeking a quiet retreat away from the main living areas.

One of the many attractions of the property is the flexibility of its accommodation. The cottage enjoys two separate reception rooms, allowing family members to enjoy their own space when required. One is currently utilised as a family games room but could equally serve as a playroom, home office or occasional guest accommodation.

The principal sitting room perfectly captures the essence of cottage living. Enjoying a dual aspect outlook, it is filled with natural light and benefits from dual outlook across the gardens. At its heart sits a wood burning stove, creating a welcoming focal point and the ideal setting for cosy winter evenings.

The open plan kitchen and dining room forms the social hub of the home. Designed with family living in mind, it provides a welcoming space for cooking, dining and entertaining. Underfloor heating ensures year round comfort, whilst French doors open directly onto the patio, effortlessly combining indoor and outdoor living and bringing the gardens into everyday life.

The kitchen itself is ideal for the more culinary among you, featuring an electric Rangemaster cooker at its centre, space for an American style fridge freezer, integrated appliances and an extensive range of floor and wall mounted cupboards. Excellent storage and generous work surfaces make this a highly practical space for family life.

The dining space welcomes the outdoors and is perfect for busy mornings or family meals any time of day, also ideal as a meeting point for friends dropping by for a coffee.

Complementing the kitchen is a useful utility room with additional storage, sink facilities, underfloor heating and space for laundry appliances. Beyond lies a practical cloakroom and WC, providing room for muddy boots and outdoor clothing after exploring the surrounding countryside.

Upstairs, the cottage continues to impress with well proportioned accommodation. The principal bedroom enjoys a triple aspect outlook across the gardens, creating a bright and peaceful retreat, whilst an en suite shower room provides additional convenience.

Bedrooms two and three are both comfortable double rooms and benefit from built in storage cupboards that make excellent use of the available space. Both rooms enjoy pleasant outlooks and welcome the morning sunshine.
