This beautiful and rarely available three bedroom detached period cottage occupies a superb, central position within the village and offers an impressive wealth of flexible, interchangeable accommodation.
Approached via timber gates opening onto a generous shingled driveway, the home provides parking for several vehicles, with a detached double garage beyond accessed by twin up-and-over doors. Stepping inside, you are welcomed by a porch which leads into a charming snug featuring a brick fireplace with a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting focal point.
Spanning the full width of the rear, the kitchen/diner is fitted with a comprehensive range of cabinetry topped with contrasting darker solid work surfaces. Space has been thoughtfully allowed for various freestanding appliances, while the room comfortably accommodates a dining table and chairs—ideal for informal family meals and everyday living. A staircase rises to the first floor from this area.
A separate study provides an ideal work from home environment with its window overlooking the front elevation. Towards the rear lies the principal reception room, a generous living room enjoying a delightful dual-aspect outlook. Here, a second wood burning stove is recessed within a fireplace, complemented by beautiful exposed brickwork running across one wall. Beyond this, a formal dining room offers ample capacity for a larger table and chairs, creating an excellent entertaining or family gathering space, while a useful bathroom sits parallel. Completing the ground floor is a brick and uPVC double-glazed conservatory with a vaulted polycarbonate roof. Extensive windows and French doors overlook the garden, ensuring the room is flooded with natural light throughout the day.
Upstairs, the first floor landing provides access to all accommodation. The master bedroom sits peacefully to the rear and features a wood panelled wall incorporating useful storage. The remaining two bedrooms are positioned to the front—one a comfortable double, the other a well proportioned single. All are served by a stylish shower room comprising a shower enclosure, low level WC and wash hand basin, finished with modern tiling, recessed lighting and an extractor fan.
Externally, the substantial rear garden provides an excellent degree of privacy. A paved patio sits directly outside the conservatory, offering an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining. A brick outbuilding has been cleverly converted into a practical utility/boot room—perfect for additional white goods or outdoor storage. The remainder of the garden is laid mainly to lawn, interspersed with mature shrubs, bushes, fruit trees and a tranquil pond. The boundaries are enclosed by a combination of brick walling and timber fencing, creating an attractive and secure outdoor space.
