Description

Located close to the beautiful and sought-after village of Bucknell, Cubbage Cottage presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a truly unique detached family home, combining generous living accommodation with the lifestyle benefits of a smallholding extending to just over five acres.

Offering an enviable blend of countryside living, flexible family space and exciting potential, this impressive four-bedroom property is perfectly suited to growing families, multi-generational living, home working, or those seeking a more self-sufficient rural lifestyle.

From the moment you arrive, Cubbage Cottage impresses with its spacious and versatile accommodation. At the heart of the home lies a wonderful family breakfast kitchen, creating the perfect gathering place for everyday life and entertaining alike. Complemented by a practical utility room and downstairs cloakroom, the property has been thoughtfully designed to meet the demands of modern family living.

The ground floor offers exceptional flexibility, featuring a generous living room with impressive bi-fold doors opening directly onto the gardens, allowing the outside to seamlessly blend with the interior. A second reception room provides additional living space, ideal as a snug, playroom or formal sitting room.

A particularly valuable feature is the separate study, which benefits from its own independent external entrance. This versatile room could easily serve as a home office for remote working, an annexe space, treatment room, guest accommodation or an additional bedroom, depending on individual requirements.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with four well-proportioned double bedrooms, providing ample accommodation for larger families or those requiring dedicated work-from-home space. The principal bedroom enjoys the luxury of its own en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom.

Step outside and the true magic of Cubbage Cottage reveals itself.

The property sits within approximately 5 acres of pasture land, currently utilised for sheep grazing, offering endless opportunities for those dreaming of a more rural lifestyle. Whether you envision keeping animals, creating extensive vegetable gardens, planting an orchard, establishing equestrian facilities or simply enjoying vast outdoor spaces for family recreation, the possibilities are truly exciting.

Adding further distinction to this unique home is the substantial covered indoor swimming pool complex, complete with adjoining gym and pump room. Whilst currently not in use and requiring some maintenance and refurbishment, this remarkable facility offers tremendous potential to create an outstanding leisure space and an incredible asset for the future owners.

Further benefiting from stabling and extensive outdoor space, Cubbage Cottage represents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a manageable smallholding whilst remaining within a welcoming village community. For further information or to arrange a viewing, please contact us on .
