Description

Believed to have been built c.1850, this well-proportioned semi-detached period cottage occupies a private position screened by mature trees and shrubs with its own driveway and a large, sunny garden of around 0.30 acres. The present owners have made a significant number of upgrades to the cottage including constructing a garage, re-roofing and remedial works, electrical updates, plus interior finishes including new carpets, laying reclaimed French parquet flooring, and extensive landscaping to the gardens. Today, the property offers spacious and well-presented 'turnkey' accommodation extending in all to around 2,515sq.ft.
 
The versatile accommodation flows superbly from room to room with the ground floor comprising three large reception rooms which include a study, 26ft living room with patio doors to the garden, and a dining room which is open plan to the kitchen. Exposed stone fireplaces are featured in both the living room and dining room and are warmed by wood-burning stoves. The stylish kitchen has a breakfast bar and integrated appliances. A utility room is located off the entrance hall and there is a downstairs WC. On the first floor there is a spacious family bathroom which has been refitted and five bedrooms. The large principal bedroom has its own wing with separate staircase and a private adjoining bathroom.
 
The cottage is accessed through a newly installed electric double gate opening to a sweeping gravelled drive providing private parking space for several vehicles and the excellent new addition of the Olsen timber garage which has power and lighting connected. The garden benefits from a sunny south-facing aspect and a excellent degree of privacy bound by newly replaced timber fencing and well-established shrubs. The garden features strategically placed seating areas beside a lawn and has been enhanced with carefully placed exterior lighting. A charming treehouse is positioned within a mature apple tree and also has lighting connected. To the side of the house there is a purpose built timber shelter housing a hydro-pool complete with lighting. Beside this, there is a versatile external room currently utilised as a yoga studio.
