Accommodation
GROUND FLOOR
The accommodation opens through an entrance porch into a welcoming sitting room positioned at the front of the property. An inset log-burning stove set within a traditional fireplace creates a warm focal point, complemented by light grey flooring, a front-facing window and a staircase rising to the first floor.
An internal door leads into the separate dining room, another characterful reception space featuring decorative ceiling beams and an open fireplace with a tiled hearth and dark oak surround. A window overlooks the front elevation, while there is ample room for a dining table and accompanying furniture.
To the rear, a lobby provides views over the garden and gives access to the kitchen and ground-floor bathroom.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and eye-level units, complemented by preparation work surfaces and a stainless-steel sink with mixer tap. Integrated appliances include an electric oven and four-ring gas hob. A side window provides natural light, while a door opens directly onto the rear garden.
Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility area providing space and plumbing for a washing machine. Rear-facing windows overlook the garden, while a wall-mounted gas-fired combination boiler supplies the domestic hot water and central heating systems.
The modern bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising a WC, wash hand basin with storage beneath and a P-shaped bath with a thermostatic twin-head shower above. Light grey wall tiling and a chrome heated towel rail complete the room.
FIRST FLOOR
The first floor provides two generously proportioned interlinking bedrooms.
The first bedroom features a front-facing window, radiator and access to the loft space. A connecting door leads into the second bedroom, which also benefits from a window, radiator and recently fitted light grey carpeting.
The property benefits from gas central heating, together with a combination of UPVC double-glazed and single-glazed windows.
OUTSIDE
The cottage is set back from the road behind an established front garden and an attractive in-and-out driveway, providing ample off-road parking and access to the garage.
To the rear is a mature garden enjoying a particularly attractive open aspect across the neighbouring fields. The garden offers excellent space for outdoor seating, recreation and further landscaping, while its countryside outlook creates a peaceful and private setting.
The generous outside space may also offer scope for future extension or improvement, subject to the necessary permissions and consents.
