Property description
Picture yourself in paradise...a balmy summer's day, feet up, eyes closed, the smell of freshly mown grass, the breeze softly blowing through the country garden with birds singing in the trees. The country dream is right here in the shape of this gorgeous four bedroom detached cottage with the original section of the building dating back to 1850 as so charmingly stated by the plaque mounted on its exterior. The property offers a wonderful family living space and the historic charm is hard to escape in the old half; with features such as exposed beams, quirky alcoves and angular walls. The newer extension adds a spacious additional space with breakfast kitchen, utility, separate dining room and an inner hall big enough to use as a playroom for the children if you dare! Upstairs are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom, all with views of the manicured wraparound garden. Outside is a large, gated gravel drive which leads to a detached double garage that also benefits from having a large store room and attached is a room ideal for a home office. The garden is idyllic and the location offers tranquility and fantastic views yet is accessible and ideally placed for commuter needs! Need we say anymore?
