Property
The property is a characterful detached unlisted period cottage with versatile space. It is located on a corner plot backing onto a field and views to the church. There are a wealth of exposed timbers.
The font door is to the side leading into a hallway, off which is the ground floor bathroom with roll top bath. A door from the hall also leads into the kitchen breakfast room that runs along the back of the house. It is fitted with a range of farmhouse style units and has a door to the garden, door to the useful utility room and a door to a secondary staircase to the first floor. There are two principal interconnecting reception rooms which are currently set out as a delightful sitting room with inglenook fireplace and a dining room. There is a further reception room that can be used as a fourth bedroom with double doors to the garden. On the first floor are three double bedrooms with the vaulted principal bedroom leading to the third bedroom. It is considered this could be adapted to create a suite. One of the bedrooms has an ensuite w.c.
Externally, timber gates lead to a large gravel parking and turning area in front of a double bay cart lodge with a single garage. There is a stable block which the vendor previously used in conjunction with renting the field to the rear. The garden wrap around the house and are largely laid to lawn with mature hedging. There is a charming summer house.
