Property description
A charming three bedroom Grade II listed terraced cottage, presented over three floors. Recently refurbished to a high standard. Garden and Workshop.
DESCRIPTION This charming three bedroom grade II listed mid terrace cottage is located in the historical village of Doulting. The property has been recently improved and updated and is beautifully presented throughout; the present owners have successfully managed to incorporate all the essentials of modern life whilst still retaining a host of period features. The original architectural drawings show the property in 1889 but it was built in 1881. The building to this day remains pretty much unchanged and still retains much of its original character and charm. The local primary school has a great reputation and the property is within staggering distance of the local village pub.
THE ACCOMODATION The accommodation comprises: on the ground floor, a sitting room with wood burning stove, a kitchen/diner and a bathroom/toilet. On the first floor there are two bedrooms, one double and one single, and on the second floor is a double bedroom with exposed stonework and views over the surrounding countryside. The owners have significantly invested in refurbishment works which includes the refurbishment of the roof in 2009, drains and plumbing. The outbuilding has been refurbished providing a workshop / utility room and storage area for LPG gas cylinders.
OUTSIDE At the front of the property there is a small enclosed garden laid to lawn with a few mature shrubs. To the rear there is a paved patio area leading to a well maintained pretty garden stocked with mature trees and shrubs.
