" This truly is a particularly rare opportunity to acquire an attractive, extended and refurbished three bedroom cottage which was built in 1881 and commands an enviable position with lovely far reaching countryside views to the front and rear. In recent years the property has undergone an extensive refurbishment programme by the current owners and offers an impressive and deceptively spacious interior throughout which combines a wealth of modern and character features. There is a pretty gabled covered entrance with door to a useful enclosed porch, ideal for the coats and wellies, beautiful lounge with oak flooring and a stunning brick inglenook fireplace with wood burner, double doors that lead into an inner hall which offers an excellent storage area, utility room with plumbing as well as a wc and completing the appealing ground floor accommodation is a stunning and particularly impressive extended double aspect kitchen dining reception room which enjoys lots of light into the room from the velux side windows along with the glass patio doors that extend across the width of room. There is a comprehensive range of kitchen units with integrated appliances as well as ample space for dining room table and chairs along with further room for the sofas. There is a nice garden aspect from this room.
On the first floor is a good size landing, principal double bedroom with an excellent range of built in wardrobes and a superb countryside view over the surrounding area, further double bedroom and a beautiful and attractive refitted bathroom with freestanding bath and separate shower cubicle. The accommodation continues to flow and impress with an additional staircase to the top floor which features a good size double bedroom with velux windows and a modern en suite cloakroom with wc.
Adding to the appeal of this wonderful home are the rear westerly facing gardens comprising a level lawn with an attractive brick built outbuilding with pitched tiled roof which could be used as a home office. From here is a path which leads to a spacious driveway with parking for several cars along with two further outbuildings, one of which was originally the garage and could be easily converted back. Adjoining is a pretty paved patio with brick furnace and boasting some stunning views over the local farm fields. The property continues with an additional lawn, attractive flowerbeds, mature trees and a great additional further outbuilding, again great for storage. Just to reiterate, the views from the rear garden are quite amazing and gives you the feeling that you are really in the countryside ! To the front is a pretty garden with lawn and path to entrance. In summary this really is a rare opportunity to purchase a stunning cottage which oozes character but offers many modern features and benefits from also being close to bus services, local shops and numerous train stations in the surrounding area.
