Property description
This attractive and deceptive cottage is found in a tucked away position in the heart of the village just off Vicarage Road. This well-appointed and much-loved 3 bedroom semi-detached home is a great example of a period property in a convenient location offering plenty of character and history.
The ground floor has a practical semi-open plan layout that is complemented by a wealth of period detail giving the property that classic cottage feel. The sitting room is a spacious reception area with connecting double doors to the dining room which is a great family/entertaining space with a gas fired Rayburn giving the room a lovely background heat and combined with the log burner within the sitting room there is a delightful sense of cosiness and warmth on those long cold winter nights.
The kitchen/breakfast room is a lovely area with plenty of windows and a stable door looking into the courtyard. The kitchen itself is fitted with handmade solid wood units, a Belfast style sink and a tiled floor runs throughout the room and into the utility/ground floor shower room.
The first floor boasts 2 double rooms, a good size single bedroom, the family bathroom and an extremely versatile landing which makes a great study/reading area.
Outside, there is a small but delightful walled courtyard garden with a decked roof terrace making this a perfect place to sit in and soak up the village life. Beyond the garden there is a covered parking area providing off road parking for two vehicles and useful workshop.
This unique character home is steeped in history and dates back to approximately 1674. The property was renovated some 30 years ago by the current owners, however some purchasers may wish to carry out some further improvements.
