The Property
Homeacre comprises an attractive period cottage, with rendered external elevations under a tiled roof. Believe to date back to the 18th century, the original part of the cottage still retains much of its character from fireplaces to exposed studwork & beams. Homeacre would be ideal for those who wish to live in a period cottage, but still wish to maintain light and spacious rooms.
The well laid out accommodation is arranged over two floors and has been updated and modernised in recent years. The front door leads into a sitting room with windows to the front elevation and a lovely fireplace with inset duel fuel burning stove. Beside the fireplace is a handy storage cupboard and to the left is staircase rising to the first floor accommodation. A doorway leads into the dining room which is open to the kitchen itself. The dining room has pamment flooring, a window to west elevation and exposed wall timbers. The kitchen is fully fitted with a range of simple country wall and base units with wood fronted draws and cupboards. Inset into the work units is a deep glazed sink/drainer with views over the rear courtyard. The kitchen has space for a range style cooker and pamment tiling to match the dining room. There is a useful utility room also with a pamment tiled floor, part glazed stable door to the rear elevation and wall mounted oil fired boiler for the central heating and hot water. A shower room on the ground floor has a corner tiled shower cubicle, pedestal wash basin and WC. On the first floor there are four bedrooms, two of which have windows to the front elevation. Currently the rear bedroom is being used as a dressing room/walk in wardrobe. The bathroom comprises a white suite with velux sky light and large linen cupboard.
Outside
Homeacre offers potential purchasers a good amount of outside space and on approach you will notice a blockweave driveway which leads up to the detached garage. The garage itself has painted wooden double doors, power and light. A garden room lies to the rear which would make a lovely summerhouse cum studio. An impressive arched window offers views of Palgrave church enough to inspire the artist within. Beside the garage is an attractive courtyard which is extremely private. The remainder of the garden is mainly arranged to the side of the house and is attractively landscaped with blockweave and shingle pathways, a terrace lined with herbaceous borders and flower beds, an ornamental garden pond and raised vegetable plot.
