Property description

Located on a private lane and fronting an attractive copse, Coombe Cottage is a charming extended character home set within a generous plot approaching a 1/5 of an acre located within a short flat walk from the centre of the picturesque village of Broughton.

Owners Comments
\"Coombe Cottage has been a uniquely private and peaceful retreat and a special place to bring our family into the world.\"

\"Added to the variety of amenities and fantastic community in Broughton, we feel that we've been really lucky to have such a special place to live over the last seven years.\"

Introduction
Originally constructed in 1916, the property has been subject to a most sensitive and extensive programme of renovation and improvement by our clients, fusing contemporary modern styling with characterful features including high ceilings, exposed beams, internal wooden slatted latch doors, handmade tiled floors and period fireplaces. The undoubted hub of the home is the well sized handcrafted country style kitchen/breakfast room boasting a dual aspect and stable door to the garden centred upon a dark blue Alpha range oven. Reception space is provided by a generous dining room and beautifully presented formal sitting room hosting a Clearview wood burning stove. On the first floor there are four double bedrooms presented in excellent decorative order, with the master serviced by an ensuite shower room. The outside space is wonderfully private with an attractive patio terrace, garage sized outhouse and a driveway providing parking for five vehicles to the front. This character home is conveniently situated for local village amenities but also offers excellent commuter access to the nearby historic cities of Salisbury and Winchester.
