Description
A beautifully presented detached Grade II listed country residence with four bedrooms situated within 4.74 acres of gardens, paddocks, orchard and large barn/workshop - enjoying a truly idyllic position on a gently southerly slope above the River Yeo valley and just on the edge of the village of Parkham.
The property is a superb opportunity to establish a home business such as car sales or dog kennels or it equally appeals as a home with equine potential or simply a special place to live with your own space around you.
Approached through electronic five bar gates and then its own private tree lined sweeping driveway, the arrival at Cottage Meadow is of particular note. The driveway forks into two - the main drive winding through the grounds before opening to an extensive parking area, with a detached triple open fronted garage and pathway leading to the house. The other leading to an extensive parking area allowing space for easily in excess of 20 vehicles – all in front of a 1600sqft barn/workshop with power and lighting.
Set within approximately 4.74 acres, the grounds are very special and comprise delightful gardens, paddocks and prolific orchard plus the polytunnel and various outdoor sheds etc.
The property has been thoughtfully modernised throughout by the current owners, who have carefully enhanced the interior to create a beautiful blend of modern comfort and character with features such as exposed wooden beams, original fireplaces with bread oven and beautiful hand-made windows plus stunning kitchen and bathrooms – using the highest quality materials.
