Description

Nestled within the picturesque rural hamlet of Ham Green, Cruise Hill Cottage is a charming detached period home amazing far reaching views offering an abundance of character, generous living accommodation extending to approximately 2,660 sq. ft., and a wealth of versatile outbuildings.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors and briefly comprises a welcoming reception hall, a spacious dual-aspect living room with feature fireplace, an elegant dining room, a well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining pantry and storage, together with a ground floor cloakroom/WC.

To the first floor are three generous double bedrooms, all enjoying pleasant views over the surrounding countryside, together with a family bathroom and useful landing storage.

The mature grounds provide a delightful rural setting with ample parking and space to enjoy the surrounding landscape.
