Description
Set back from the road and situated within Frittenden Conservation Area and Cranbrook School catchment, Pearsons Cottage is a lovely five bedroom property with a detached ‘Bijou’ self-contained guest suite, established gardens with pretty enclosed courtyard and off road parking for two cars.

This versatile property has been extended and the reception accommodation flows continually, linking these adaptable relaxing or entertaining spaces. Over the split-level ground floor are three reception rooms of good proportions: Sitting and dining rooms both featuring fine reclaimed oak flooring, period-style cast iron radiators and the former having a wood burning stove; a playroom/family room with wall to wall shelves and a flexible studio/study off, with mellow parquet flooring.

On entering the kitchen with its underfloor heating, you are greeted by the lovely view over the neighbouring fields. There is an excellent range of hand painted cupboards, a central island and pull-out larder cupboards. Appliances include a Rangemaster oven, a Smeg induction hob and an integral dishwasher. Bi fold doors open out to the south easterly facing terrace and garden, part of which abuts neighbouring farmland.

Completing the ground floor is a WC and a very useful and sizable utility/boot room with separate access from the front, equipped with further storage cupboards, a traditional Belfast sink and space for various white goods.

On the first floor is the main bedroom which enjoys a lovely outlook and benefits from a luxurious en suite shower room. Four remaining bedrooms are served by a well appointed family bathroom, with bedrooms three and four enjoying a view towards the old village church.

To the south west of the house lies the old engine/steam room with attached chimney still very much a prominent feature and remaining in situ. Now converted into a guest bedroom suite it incorporates a bedroom and stylishly appointed en suite shower room and could be used for a variety of uses.
