A quintessential black-and-white timber framed Cottage listed Grade II set in a delightful private garden in the heart of East Hagbourne Village.
Bramley Cottage has origins dating back to the mid 17th century (Source Historic England) and offers charming character accommodation arranged over three floors. The property has been sympathetically restored over the years taking great care to retain the character and history of the building yet combining this with such features as a large first full bathroom and an L-shaped farmhouse kitchen/dining space complete with Aga.
Amongst the many period features of the property are the original oak boarded floors on the first floor, flagstone flooring in the kitchen and dining space, the impressive Inglenook fireplace to the sitting room and a wealth of natural exposed timbers throughout.
The pretty cottage gardens are a particular feature offering a high degree of privacy and include a useful detached utility/laundry room adapted from the original wash house and a pretty timber summer house, which offers scope as a home office.
