Originally part of a farmhouse and dairy, this stunning home sits in beautifully landscaped gardens approaching a third of an acre. From the enclosed entrance porch, the front door opens into a welcoming sitting room, featuring an impressive inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove providing a warm and cosy atmosphere. The kitchen, full of rustic character, boasts a half-vaulted ceiling, bespoke fitted units, and a ceramic sink set into granite worktop, combining functionality with country charm. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining room flows seamlessly into a light-filled conservatory, an ideal retreat to unwind after a busy day. A hallway leads to a versatile ground-floor bedroom, which is a real talking point featuring a sealed, glass-topped well set into the flagstone floor, complete with internal lighting to showcase this unique feature. Off the hallway, the ground floor accommodation is completed by a utility room and modern shower room.

Upstairs, you will find two further characterful bedrooms with exposed timbers, and a beautifully appointed family bathroom. This luxurious space includes a freestanding double ended bath and a separate walk-in shower.

Outside, the gardens are a true highlight of the property. To the rear, a paved seating area backed by natural stone walls leads to an attractive ornamental pond. Steps rise to a level lawn, complemented by a charming pergola, perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining. To the side, a further expanse of lawn with a raised flower border and pathway leads to a useful workshop and vegetable garden.

For practicality, the property benefits from extensive off-road parking, including space for several vehicles and the added convenience of a pull-in layby.

In summary, this exceptional cottage offers an enchanting blend of period charm, character features, and versatile living spaces, all set within stunning gardens.
