5 Bedroom Cottage For Sale

Property description

*OPEN DAY SUN 12TH OCT BY APPT ONLY 1-4PM* STAMP DUTY PAID (HOME REPORT £650,000) Set in level well stocked grounds of just under an acre, almost hidden from view with a sweeping driveway that sets a grand stage for Little Porton, is a particularly picturesque example of countryside living. It gives a glimpse of the quality features; this charming cottage has to offer and truly has to be seen to be believed! Part of the striking five bedroom detached property dates back 200 years and despite its envious and characteristic external appearance and the perfect marriage of modern splendour and traditional charm, it allows ‘Little Porton’ to fall under the one spell. Internally, the home retains a great deal of periodic features, also making a good balance with modern requirements for a working family home split over two main levels.

There is also an active business opportunity within the property due to the space offered.

Stepping through the main entrance on the ground floor, leads you to all apartments on this level. Here you will discover space and luxury at every turn; to start, a formal lounge with an open fire and stone surround - the perfect place to unwind in after a hard day at work. A ‘Moben Shaker’ style fitted breakfasting kitchen has been professionally fitted and comes complete with a quality range of integrated appliances to include dishwasher, fridge, freezer and not forgetting the double ‘Rangemaster’ cooker which fits in nicely. The open fire allows it to maintain a ‘cosy’ atmosphere. There is space for a breakfast table and chairs - a popular zone when mum’s breakfast is on the go! The useful utility room, fitted with spacious ‘Magnet & Southern’ units is plumbed for washing machine and has space for a tumble dryer. A further public room can be accessed from the formal lounge through a set of doors - this zone is flooded with natural light from the large glazed sections and windows which also boasts fantastic views of the rear garden. It is occasionally used for fine dining with family and friends and gives you the chance to impress your guests with your culinary skills - the chef is never to far away as it can also be accessed from the kitchen - it’s easy to imagine the fabulous evenings and good company the magnificent space has played host to. This level also offers three well proportioned bedrooms (one of which is currently being used as a home office) all of the bedrooms have a range of furniture configurations and space for additional free standing if required. The rooms are further enhanced with built in mirrored wardrobes - creating excellent storage space. The room currently being used as a home office would be perfect for either an elderly person or a ‘teenager’s room’ as it is ideally positioned next to the three piece family bathroom suite with overhead shower. It would make them feel more comfortable by having their own little zone. The additional two bedrooms situated at the other end of the cottage, have a set of French doors which provide access in to the garden and allow you to invite outside in. A separate WC and useful showeroom complete the impressive accommodation on this level. A ‘turn staircase’ with a fantastic window seat invites you to the upper level of the cottage. On this level you will find a further two well proportioned bedrooms with one having an envious en-suite to include walk in shower and the other having a ‘secret room’ further afield - which could be utilised as a wide variety of things such as a dressing room, or home study/office with its own telephone line, for those requiring working from home arrangements. This room will appeal to all members of the family. Velux windows allow beautiful views of the garden to be captured from this level.

Externally the driveway provides off road parking for a number of vehicles and leads up to a fully powered and alarmed, detached double garage. The garden grounds are undoubtedly the heart of this beautiful home. Generous grounds synonymous with the luxury inside complete this tranquil countryside living. The manicured lawns and array of plants and shrubs provide a colourful setting. A further advantage is the greenhouse for those who like to grow their own ‘home’ vegetables and the two sheds, both supplied with electricity and alarmed, the larger one being fitted with a workshop for those who like to be creative in peace! The sun captures each part of the garden throughout the day whether it be starting off in the morning with a good book on the swinging chair, then relaxing on the sun lounger with a glass of freshly squeezed orange and finishing at the bar with a well earned glass of wine! The garden ground at the front of the property has an eye catching fish pond with a quirky foot bridge There is enough garden ground for those ‘horsey lovers’ to build a stable on with a grazing field just a stone throw away. (For the use of the field, this would be subject to obtaining permission from the owner). The ‘secret’ garden which is a small area of private woodland would be ideal to home chickens or have it simply as the ‘kids zone’.
