Idyllic Grade II listed cottage in the heart of the village.

Description

Beautifully presented with retained character features including original fireplaces and beams, 1 Elm Corner is a delightful Grade II listed cottage which has been beautifully maintained by the current owners who have been in residence for over 25 years.

Presented over three floors, downstairs accommodation comprises generous sized sitting room with an impressive Inglenook fireplace and an adjoining formal dining area, the kitchen is filled with natural light with a vaulted glass roof and adds a wonderful modern contrast. There are integrated Miele appliances, an induction hob and there is ample space for a dining table ideal for more relaxed and informal dining. Off the kitchen is a well appointed utility room with slate floors and vaulted beamed ceiling which leads to a shower room with underfloor heating.

On the first floor are two bedrooms and the large landing provides a useful study area which lends itself to working from home. An additional bedroom can be found on the second floor along with the family bathroom.

Outside, the secluded garden is truly wonderful and has been designed by the current owners with an immaculate lawn, flowering borders and trees including quince, walnut, fig and apple. There is a superb home office with power and light as well as two garden stores, a well, and Victorian privey. To the front of the cottage is a pretty walled garden with lovely topiary, climbing roses and wisteria.

Parking bays are provided on the common for use of the householders. Elm Corner has uninterrupted use of two parking spaces adjacent to the property for 25 years. There is potential to create a single parking space in the side garden next to the existing conservatory.
