This unique property comprises 4 double bedrooms (one en suite), a large kitchen, front reception with log burner and open fireplace, rear reception with double sided log burner, further room with skylight windows and French doors to garden. Other benefits that contribute to making this lovely grade 11 listed property a most desirable place to live include original stripped floorboards and oak flooring throughout, upstairs bathroom and downstairs wet room, a summer house, private driveway, a wealth of original features, secondary double glazing, gas central heating and plenty of history. It is one of the villages most interesting historic homes, its oldest part being the early 18th century home of the Purdue family who were ferrymen. In the early 19th century, a near replica was added changing the property from two bedrooms to four and in 2005 the rear lean-to was demolished and replaced with a full width ground floor extension with vaulted ceiling and French doors to garden. It is within walking distance of Shepperton High Street with its excellent amenities including a post office, butchers, bakers, supermarkets, cafes, pubs, restaurants and much more and is also a short stroll to the Thames Tow Path where you can take a ferry over to Weybridge or enjoy a wealth of activities around The Lock. � Grade 11 listed detached cottage � 4 double bedrooms � 3 reception rooms � Upstairs bathroom/downstairs wet room � Private parking � Driveway � Abundance of original features and character � Plantation shutters � Secondary double glazing � Beautiful views � Unique location
