"A beautiful thatched Cottage full of character set in glorious gardens and grounds of approximately 0.524 acres with stunning views across open countryside.
Walnut Tree Cottage
A beautifully presented cottage, believed to date back to the 17th century, set in a peaceful and idyllic location on the edge of the village of Woodcote, adjacent to the popular Greenmore Wood.
Over recent years, the property has been meticulously maintained, including a complete re thatching of the roof. The accommodation is light and spacious and has been significantly enhanced with the addition of a superb two storey extension. This extension provides a generously sized sitting room on the ground floor and a luxurious master bedroom suite above. Inside, the cottage is full of period charm and character, with exposed timbers and a fine open fireplace that create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Outside, the property is approached via a five bar wooden gate leading to a brick paved driveway. The level, private gardens are mostly laid to lawn and beautifully landscaped with mature trees,
shrubs, and herbaceous borders. Hedges provide privacy and seclusion, while a block paved path and terrace run along the side of the house, featuring an ornamental fish pond and ample space for outdoor seating and entertaining.
