Approached via a sweeping driveway, the property immediately impresses with its attractive cottage appeal, generous gardens and peaceful countryside surroundings. Internally, the accommodation is both versatile and welcoming, retaining a wealth of character including exposed beams, an impressive inglenook fireplace and original style features throughout. The entrance hall leads into a spacious living room featuring a beamed ceiling, an inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove and a charming feature bread oven, creating a warm and inviting focal point. A doorway opens directly onto the garden, while an adjoining second reception room is currently utilised as a study but would equally lend itself to use as a snug or playroom. A cloakroom off the hall also houses the oil-fired boiler. The split-level layout adds to the cottage's unique charm. On the first level, the kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of cabinets, an integrated electric oven and a peninsula breakfast bar. A separate utility room provides additional storage and plumbing for a washing machine. Also on this floor is a double bedroom, a shower room, and a further reception room currently arranged as a dining room with French doors opening onto the rear garden. This room offers excellent flexibility and could serve as a fourth bedroom if required. The upper floor provides two further double bedrooms, both enjoying exposed beamed ceilings and delightful countryside views. A walk-in wardrobe on the landing and linen cupboard offer useful additional storage. Outside, the property continues to impress. A detached garage and ample driveway parking are complemented by a variety of attractive garden areas. An enclosed private garden sits alongside the driveway, while lawned gardens extend around the property with pathways linking the various outdoor spaces. To the rear, a covered seating area provides the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding rural views. Beyond lies a substantial lawned garden with greenhouse.
