Believed to date from the 1950s, this attractive two-bedroom cottage is very well presented throughout, having benefited from a comprehensive programme of internal improvements in recent years. Enhancements include a modern fitted kitchen, stylish shower room, fitted wardrobes to both bedrooms, a new gas-fired central heating boiler, and the installation of a solar PV system with 10kWh battery storage.
The property is entered via an entrance porch, which leads into a bright and welcoming living room. A fireplace with brick surround and tiled hearth forms an attractive focal point, complemented by wooden storage units on either side. As the heart of the home, the living room provides access to the kitchen, conservatory and inner hallway leading to the bedroom accommodation and shower room.
The refitted kitchen incorporates a built-in oven and hob, with space and plumbing for a dishwasher, and benefits from a door providing side access. To the rear, the conservatory overlooks and opens onto the delightful enclosed garden, which is attractively planted with a variety of mature trees and shrubs. Additional features include a vegetable plot, greenhouse, and a superb summerhouse complete with power, lighting and a timber decked seating area. A door from the conservatory acceses the cloakroom/utility room.
To the front, a driveway and gated side recess provide ample off-road parking, including space for boat storage, and benefit from an EV charging point. Please note that whilst the original single garage has been removed, the hardstanding remains in place.
