A charming, extended three bedroom semi detached cottage with two garden studios one currently used as an additional bedroom and an exceptional garden reaching 95 metres approx. with uninterrupted countryside views beyond.
Situated on the outskirts of this popular village, Kosy Kot has been a cherished family home to the current owners since 2012. The original part of the cottage dates back to the mid 1800s and is believed to have been extended in the 1970s and then again by the current owners in 2013. In their ownership they have sympathetically modernised the house throughout, added a ground floor extension to create an impressive open plan kitchen dining living area, switched the heating to an air source heat pump and installed underfloor heating to the entire ground floor.
The property is entered into a handy entrance porch with space to hang coats before leading into the sitting room. This room sits in the original part of the cottage and is a welcoming room with an exposed stone fireplace and a wood burning stove inset, making a real focal point to the room. The opposite wall also has exposed stonework and a bespoke built in storage cabinet. Between the sitting room and the kitchen is an inner lobby utility room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and lots of practical storage space. Off this room is a downstairs WC and a further cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. To one corner of the room is an open tread, turned staircase rising to the first floor with a wine store inset and a recess to one wall with built in bookshelves. The extended kitchen dining family room is an outstanding space filled with natural light from the window, two Velux windows and part glazed stable door leading out to the rear garden. There is a traditional country cottage style fitted kitchen situated to one end, complete with a central island unit and space for stools, aiding the social nature of this room.
Upstairs there are three well proportioned double bedrooms all accessed from the landing. The master bedroom enjoys superb views across the rear garden and countryside beyond. A luxurious bespoke family bathroom comprises a white suite with a deep bath with shower over, wash hand basin set within a vanity unit and WC. The room possesses superb discrete storage.
