Description

"Originally dating from the 1830 s and subsequently extended in the 1970 s, 26 French Mill Lane has part greensand stone and part tile hung and rendered elevations. Originally a period cottage, 26 French Mill Lane has been imaginatively extended creating light and spacious accommodation, with a well proportioned sitting room in the older part of the cottage with access onto a paved terrace overlooking the garden. At first floor level there are three double and one single bedroom with a large and well fitted family bath shower room and en suite shower room to the principal bedroom. Other attributes worthy of mention include an oil combi boiler, a Clearview woodburner in the sitting room and a lean to conservatory overlooking the ornamental pond.

The property is approached off French Mill Lane onto a tarmac driveway adjoining which is the double garage with light and power. Adjoining the garage there is a lean to woodstore and a further area of garden which could be put to a variety of uses. The majority of the garden is to side and rear; at the side there is a paved area with an ornamental pond and steps flanked by well stocked flower and shrub borders leading to the lawn. Accessed from the sitting room, there is large paved terrace with a delightful outlook over the garden with steps to the rear lawn bordered on both sides by well stocked flower and shrub beds with hellebores, primroses and a variety of flowering shrubs. The garden is well screened from the lane by hedging on one side and by post and rail fencing on the other. At the end of the garden there is a mature conifer and a picket fence leading back onto the lane.

Services Mains water, electricity, and drainage. Oil fired central heating.
