Description: This lovely period cottage has a very long history and has been traced back to 1780 by the current owner. It is believed that it would have been a small holding in previous times and had several acres of land attached with open countryside all around. Although the village has developed around it, the property still retains much of its old worldly charm and character and is surprisingly private, given its location in a road of more modern houses. The accommodation has plenty to offer and features two vast receptions, a 23n++ x 12n++ living room and a 26n++ x 16n++5n++n++ Drawing Room which itself open to a conservatory to one side and overlooks the garden to the rear. There is a fitted kitchen, utility room and cloakroom on the ground floor and on the first floor, four bedrooms and a bathroom.

Description Cont'd Features of the property include, beamed ceilings, an inglenook fire place and a charming garden with pond, established trees and shrubs and hidden areas, ideal for kids to play etc. This is a great opportunity to buy a family house that combines the character and charm of a period cottage with the ease and convenience of a village location. This is a house that must be seen to be fully appreciated and we would be happy to accompany anyone interested in taking a closer look.
