If you are searching for a beautiful yet practical typical English country cottage then look no further. Overlooking and backing onto fields, this attractive Grade II listed extended cottage with manicured gardens of 0.23 acres, driveway and garage is not to be missed.

This home has been owned by the same vendors for the past 27 years over which time they have made extensive changes and improvements to create what you see today. Initially extended in 2003 and again with the garden room extension in 2010, the home benefits from unusually generous accommodation for a property of this type.

The gardens are predominantly laid to lawns with feature ponds /rockery to the front along with a variety of trees, shrubs and manicured hedges. The rear garden benefits from a flagstone patio area and a garden that overlooks a neighbouring field. Please note there is a small area of this garden on loan to the vendor which we are told will carry over to the new owner.
