Description
Rainbow Cottage is a charming semi-detached period cottage occupying a lovely position within the village of Little Somerford close to the well-regarded pub and set amongst front and rear gardens. The current owners have made significant improvements remodelling the first floor to facilitate an en-suite and converting the loft to create a characterful top floor bedroom with exposed timber beams. The cottage is beautifully presented with the enlarged accommodation now offering just under 1,300 sq.ft. across three floors.
On the ground floor a reception hall features flagstone flooring connecting to the good-sized living room complete with a wood burning stove. At the rear, the open plan 20ft kitchen/dining room has patio doors connecting to the rear garden and boasts a range of integrated appliances including a dishwasher, freezer, fridge, and washing machine. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, two of which with fitted wardrobes, plus the principal bedroom benefitting from the new stylishly fitted en-suite shower room. The family bathroom has a shower over the bath. The top floor bedroom boasts ample eaves storage.

From the drive, a pedestrian gate opens to the rear garden through to the kitchen for convenient access. Both the front and rear gardens have been landscaped, and the back garden benefits from new fencing. A circular front lawn features a colourful acer as the focal point, while the back garden has a patio seating terrace, lawn with a well feature, and planters with espalier fruit trees.
