The Property
Pendragon is a charming three double bedroom cottage which is believed to date back to the the early 1800's.
The cottage is constructed of solid clay lump walls, with a brick façade which was added at a later date. Since then the brickwork has been rendered to finish the cottage to its pleasing exterior you see today. Many original features remain within the cottage including tall sash windows, stripped wooden floorboards, high ceilings and a vintage solid fuel Rayburn. Since the current vendors occupation, the house has been transformed over the years with a number of significant improvements. In particular, the windows have been replaced and in some cases restored with acoustic glass. Both the chimneys located in either of the reception rooms have been fully lined for easy use of these wonderful Victorian fireplaces.
The accommodation is well laid out with two main reception rooms, kitchen, bathroom and a large utility on the ground floor. A straight wooden staircase leads up to the first floor landing where there is access into the three main bedrooms, shower room and the small box room/dressing room.
Outside
The property is approached through a five bar gate, leading onto the driveway and up to the garage. The garage is of good size with an up & over door, personnel door to the side, power and light connected. At the rear of the cottage is a small patio area, ideal for enjoying morning coffee overlooking the wonderful gardens. As you proceed through the gardens, you will notice they widen, with formal lawns near the house and more natural wild gardens as you reach the rear of the plot. The wildlife garden areas have been specifically left with long grasses, mature hedges, fruit trees and shrubs to aid nature. In addition there are a number of vegetable plots which are highly productive.
