Optney Cottages, High Street

DESCRIPTION As you enter the property through the front door, you are welcomed into a charming sitting and dining room. This inviting space, which overlooks the front of the house, is highlighted by a woodburner that serves as the room's main focal point. Moving further into the home, you will discover the kitchen, which was tastefully renovated in 2023. This modern kitchen features a variety of wall and base units, offering ample storage and functionality. The kitchen seamlessly connects to a bright conservatory, where double doors open out to the garden, providing an ideal space for indoor-outdoor living. Adjacent to the kitchen is the bathroom, equipped with a full suite including a bath with an overhead shower, a basin, and a toilet, ensuring convenience and comfort.

Heading upstairs, the first bedroom is a spacious double room, complete with a built-in cupboard. The second bedroom, also a double, overlooks the rear of the property so you can enjoy the view of the garden.

Outside, the front of the property includes off-road parking for one vehicle. At the rear, you'll find a beautifully maintained garden, featuring mature shrubs and tree. At the far end of the garden, there is a charming wooden lodge, perfect for use as a home office or for accommodating visiting guests. Additionally, the property boasts a sauna, ideal for use all year round!
