The Property
A beautifully presented Grade II Listed thatched semi-detached cottage set in a tucked away position in the heart of this popular village. The cottage has been renovated throughout by the current owner, whilst retaining much of its original character and charm. The biggest addition to the property is the large kitchen/dining/living room conversion which is now the real hub of the home. Outside, the property offers off road parking for 2-3 cars, and a large established landscaped garden.
This property is entered via the spacious reception room before leading into the large open plan, kitchen/dining room.
The kitchen/dining room offers contemporary living, a range of base and wall units as well as a dual range cooker. The design of the kitchen/dining room is perfect for large gatherings. It offers a vaulted ceiling (with beams), flagstone underfloor heating and features double doors providing a great view of the beautifully landscaped garden.
Also accessed from the reception room is the utility, shower room/wc and a cloak cupboard.
The spacious living room offers oak flooring, an inglenook fireplace and a wood burning stove. There are double aspect windows, with deep window sills and stairs to the first floor.
Continuing on the groundfloor, you enter from the living room into the study area/gym/dining room, with a door leading into the third bedroom.
The first floor plays home to the family bathroom, large master-bedroom and bedroom two.
The bathroom is well maintained and has been beautifully decorated, offering wooden panelling and a victorian style roll top bath.
Both master bedroom and bedroom two are of a good size with the rustic charm continuing throughout.
Outside
Outside, the property has adequate parking for 2-3 cars, a large beautifully landscaped garden with two sheds and a greenhouse.
The owner previously had planning permission for the erection of a double garage at the rear of the garden and a new access/drive. Plans are available for reference but a new application would need to be submitted. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this charming, versatile cottage.
