Property description
This extremely deceptive double fronted end cottage has been extended over the years and offers adaptable accommodation in a surprisingly peaceful location yet close to the heart of the village centre and with the tremendous benefit of a generously sized garage with a parking space in front, a number of outbuildings including several store sheds and greenhouse, private gardens including vegetable area and patio and backing to a field. The kitchen includes an Aga. The cottage is mostly double glazed and has an oil fired central heating system installed. The first floor accommodation provides 3 bedrooms along with a good sized family bathroom whilst the adaptable ground floor accommodation includes a generous lounge/dining room, kitchen, located off which is a study/office, a utility room and inner hallway which gives access to a shower room, secondary reception room which could equally provide a ground floor bedroom four which has double doors opening into a conservatory. This reception area, conservatory and shower room could equally provide a ground floor annexe facility for those requiring one. Of particular interest to the discerning purchaser is the larger than anticipated grounds which include a covered drying area, number of useful store sheds, a well proportioned greenhouse with the unusual feature of steps which lead down and give access to the larger than anticipated garage which has an electric roll over door and in front of which is space to park a further vehicle. These two items in themselves are rare for this type of property and in such a location. Although the property would benefit from some updating, this is a wonderful opportunity to create a fabulous family home with real charm and character.
