Property description
THE PROPERTY West End comprises a beautifully presented and well maintained detached period thatched cottage sitting in a large plot of 0.52 acre. Located within easy reach of the village High Street and all its facilities, the property unusually benefits from ample off-road parking within the driveway and a substantial detached double garage with an annexe.
The property was originally thought to have been a school and the discovery of ink wells within the garden would support this. The accommodation benefits from some lovely high ceilings and is arranged over two floors.
The front door gives access to two reception rooms, one of which is currently being utilised as a double bedroom. The sitting room has a fireplace with a fitted gas fire and is open plan to a dining room with exposed beams. Adjacent to this is a snug and a spacious rear entrance hall with a door leading out on to the driveway. The kitchen is a wonderful room and the heart of the home. This has been refitted within the past five years with an extensive range of oak-fronted floor and wall mounted units under granite work tops. Integral appliances include a double oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, a five-ring gas hob with extractor over and there are twin sink bowls with a waste disposal unit. The kitchen is open plan to a garden room which has two French doors on to the garden. The cottage also has a large utility with under-floor heating, a twin sink unit, and plumbing and space for a washing machine, tumble drier and dishwasher. This room also houses the wall-mounted gas-fired boiler, a waste disposal unit and a water softener. Adjacent to the utility is a modern shower room.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms, both with built in wardrobes, a spacious attic/play room and a family bathroom.
Outside, the detached double garage is also thatched and has a kitchen/utility with an adjacent shower room and stairs rising to a large room over which could either be used as an annexe, a room to let out or even a work-from-home office or studio.
The gardens are well tended and much larger than average. The front garden has been laid to lawn with well-stocked flower beds, with the side and rear garden being laid mainly to lawn, again with mature trees and shrubs. The driveway is gravelled and allows ample off-road parking and within the garden are two useful storage sheds.
The property was re-thatched within the last seven years and re-ridged in 2013. All mains services are understood to be connected, with a gas heating system to radiators. The property is not believed to be listed and lies outside of the conservation area.
This property is available with no onward chain.
