Description

Dingley Dell - a charming property boasting characterful features throughout and set within 1.29 acres of private garden land and secret garden 'The Dell', upholding the most peaceful and tranquil setting.

The property is privately situated on a country lane, yet is within walking distance to the popular gastropub 'The Punchbowl' and delightful Packwood House, a well-known National Trust property. The property is also situated within close proximity to Lapworth Village, benefiting from a local shop, wine store, post office and doctors surgery.

Upon entry, the property benefits from a spacious driveway with parking for multiple vehicles, securely behind a gated entrance.

The property has been truly loved and cared for within the current vendor's ownership, yet provides a potential purchaser to enhance the property further if so desired.

To the ground floor, the inviting entrance hall leads through to the main reception rooms to the ground floor, including the kitchen and open sitting room - a perfect space to enjoy day to day. The quaint stable door from the living room leads onto the inviting patio and private garden, which we believe could have been the original front door to the original cottage.

The formal dining room enjoys views over the garden and is conveniently situated adjacent to the kitchen, perfect for entertaining. The main living room enjoys a wonderful feature fireplace drawing a focal point to the room and leads through to the conservatory enjoying views of the garden from all elevations.

The useful utility room and guest WC complete the ground floor accommodation.

There are three bedrooms to the first floor including the principal bedroom with multiple fitted wardrobes and an ensuite bathroom. The elevated ceiling height does not go unnoticed enhancing a sense of space throughout the principal suite.

The second bedroom also benefits from an ensuite bathroom and fitted wardrobes and the third bedroom shares use of the family bathroom with walk in shower. All bedrooms enjoy views of the encircling gardens surrounding Dingley Dell.

Outbuildings and Garaging
There are many additional and most positive elements externally to Dingley Dell including the barn which has two further reception rooms currently used as an office and workshop. The barn is situated opposite the main cottage with an attractive archway to allow access from the front driveway and garage.

The detached double garage and additional L shaped garage space provides parking for multiple vehicles - ideal for any car enthusiasts! The garage also presents the opportunity to create further living space perhaps (subject to the appropriate planning requirements), providing versatile accommodation if so desired.

Garden and Grounds
Dingley Dell sits within approx. 1.29 acres with undisturbed countryside views to all elevations. The main garden to the left-hand side of the cottage benefits from a southerly aspect and is most private. There are many additional seating areas and lawn areas to enjoy and is most deceiving from the roadside. The additional land which has been more recently acquired in 2006 named 'The Dell' enjoys established foliage, several apple trees, creating the upmost peaceful and private setting.

The property is available for sale with no upward chain.
