A beautifully presented and spacious character cottage, sympathetically improved throughout by the current owners, to blend period features with modern conveniences. An additional adapted stone barn provides well equipped office/studio space and the delightful gardens as well as the versatile accommodation are ideal for families.

ACCOMMODATION:
This charming and beautifully presented property offers spacious, flexible living across both the main house and an additional adapted barn. Entering the main dwelling, the welcoming porch with ample space to hang coats and kick off your wellies, leads into a broad hallway connecting all ground floor rooms. The large sitting room at the heart of this home, features period details, including a log burner and hand crafted built-in shelving, and flows into the dining room and kitchen. The dual-aspect kitchen is light and airy, with a bespoke country-style design and space for a breakfast/informal dining area. A boot/utility room with fitted storage units and garden access, offers additional practicality.

The ground floor also includes a versatile fifth bedroom / study, perfect for a guest room served by the nearby and fully equipped ground floor bathroom. Upstairs, the generous master bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, lovely views over the gardens and a well appointed an en-suite. Three further bedrooms can all accommodate double beds if required and a shower room with WC and wash basin, caters to these rooms.

The fabulous external stone barn provides substantial office or hobby space, split into two large rooms. The larger primary room enjoys an impressive vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and plenty of storage and power points. This unique space offers a multitude of potential uses, to suit home working, entertaining space or with further adaptation and consent, perhaps guest accommodation.

With its beautiful blend of period charm and modern practicality, this property offers ideal living and working space in a highly flexible layout.

The property enjoys generous gardens within this total plot of just under 1/4 acre, extending mainly to the southerly facing rear of the property. Doors open from the boot room to a patio area, offering the ideal sheltered outdoor dining spot, and also from the dining room to the remainder of the garden, which is loosely defined into two parts by mature hedgerow. The larger part is laid mostly to lawn interspersed with fruit trees and bordered by flower beds, providing the ideal recreation space for families with children or pets. The second part is also partially laid to lawn with several raised vegetable plots, catering to those more green fingered buyers. A timber garden shed also offers further useful storage space here. The gated entry to the property through an open backed car port, provides wonderful privacy and access to a courtyard to park two modest size cars. The additional larger than average garage offers further secure parking or storage as required.
