Front Street, Ilmington, Shipston-On-Stour

A charming 2-bedroom Cotswold stone, period cottage located in the heart of this popular village, just a short walk from the village shop, inns, primary school, and park.

Having been sympathetically restored by the current owners the cottage now provides characterful accommodation with a modern twist. As you enter, you will find yourself in the cosy sitting room with a lovely window seat, making it an ideal spot for a dining table. A wood-burning stove is surrounded by an exposed brick fireplace with a storage cupboard to one side and shelves to the other. Flagstone tiles extend throughout the ground floor to the kitchen at the rear, which features modern fitted units, space for a large fridge freezer and slimline dishwasher, and plenty of natural light coming in from the double doors out to the garden. There is also a handy side door, leading to a covered storage area outside.

There is a beautiful downstairs bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC. Every little nook has been thoughtfully utilised in the cottage, with an understairs utility cupboard to house a washer/dryer and useful drawers built into the stairs.

An elm staircase leads to the main bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, original floorboards, an exposed brick chimney, and useful over-stair storage accessed via a ladder, offering pretty views over neighbouring fields. The second bedroom is a smaller double and has a cupboard housing the immersion tank.

Outside to the rear, there is a westerly-facing patio and decked area, perfect for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun, along with a pretty lawned cottage garden. An insulated summerhouse/home office at the bottom of the garden offers a tranquil place to work or relax, while tucked away at the end of the garden is a brick-built store, a larger storage shed, and two smaller wooden sheds.
