Dating back to 1874, this charming period cottage blends character features with thoughtfully updated accommodation. The welcoming sitting room centres around an attractive fireplace with a log-burning stove, complemented by fitted shelving within the chimney recesses and useful under-stairs storage. To the rear, the kitchen/dining room was extended in 2005 to create a bright and sociable space, featuring engineered oak flooring, a range of fitted units, an integrated fridge-freezer, plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher, and a range cooker with LPG gas hob. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, providing an excellent connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces.
The first floor offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, both retaining period fireplaces that enhance the cottage’s character. The principal bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes, while the family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower over, heated towel rail, and an airing cupboard housing a recently installed Worcester Bosch combination boiler. A pull-down ladder provides access to a boarded loft, offering useful additional storage. Most of the property’s windows have also been replaced in recent years.
The private rear garden is a particular feature of the property, offering a peaceful and well-established outdoor space. A paved terrace adjoins the kitchen, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the remainder is laid mainly to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and well-stocked borders. To the rear of the garden is a useful outbuilding with power and lighting, making it ideal as a workshop, hobby room or additional storage.
