Nestling within approximately 7.24 acres of mature gardens and pasture land, Highfield Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a charming three-bedroom detached country cottage in an attractive rural setting.

The property is approached through a five bar wooden gate along the driveway leading to a spacious parking area. Complementing the land is a substantial brick-built outbuilding, offering excellent potential for a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents..

The well-presented accommodation extends to:
An entrance hall with useful WC off, leading through to the impressive open-plan kitchen, living and dining room. This superb dual-aspect space forms the heart of the home and is fitted with a comprehensive range of bespoke wall and base units incorporating a built-in oven with electric hob and extractor hood above, providing an ideal environment for both family living and entertaining.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical utility room housing the oil-fired boiler and providing plumbing and space for a washing machine together with space for a separate tumble dryer.
A generous lounge/family room enjoys an abundance of natural light from three windows overlooking the front elevation and features an attractive brick fireplace with surround.

To the first floor, the principal bedroom is a spacious double room benefiting from a modern en-suite shower room fitted with a contemporary white suite and walk-in shower cubicle. There are two further double bedrooms, all enjoying pleasant outlooks over the surrounding grounds and countryside.
Completing the accommodation is a well-appointed family bathroom, fitted with a modern white suite comprising a WC, pedestal wash hand basin, shower cubicle and panelled bath.

Outside, the extensive gardens and pasture land provide excellent space for grazing, recreation and country pursuits, making Highfield Cottage an outstanding lifestyle property in a sought-after rural location.
