A beautifully and sympathetically updated cottage, with superb garden, set in the heart of this popular village.
This beautiful cottage was the former Cartwright's dwelling and workshops. In recent years, an extensive and sympathetic programme of refurbishment works and alterations has taken place, including the replacement of the windows, retaining the cottage’s character.
The accommodation is set over two floors. The ground floor offers a degree of versatility, as there are a number of rooms which could be used in different ways. There are two entrance doors. The one in frequent use, as with most cottages, leads into the utility / back hall. The shower room / WC is set adjacent, and a door leads to the kitchen, which was formerly the cartwright’s workshop. This has good levels of light and a full height ceiling, adding to the feeling of space. There is an extensive range of fitted units with integrated dishwasher and a range cooker.
A door leads through to the snug or dining room. This cosy room has a door to the garden, a lovely window with seat beneath and a wood burning stove. Steps lead down to the living room which has a dining area and a sitting room area. This atmospheric room has exposed beams to the ceiling, two windows over-look the front garden and the stone fireplace houses a wood burning stove. The studio or fourth bedroom is a useful addition to the house and has bi-fold doors opening to the garden. It is set off the rear hall. The adjacent shower room almost provides ensuite facilities.
The first floor is approached via a timber staircase from the sitting room. The landing provides access to each of the bedrooms and the bathroom.
The main bedroom enjoys good levels of light with a window to the south and a pair of doors opening to the Juliet balcony, which affords a view up the garden. The second bedroom is another light room with a pretty dormer window and further window with a view up the garden. There are built-in wardrobes. The third bedroom has a window to the front elevation and also has built-in storage. The bathroom is superbly appointed with bath, WC, basin and shower cubicle.
The cottage sits behind a pretty front garden with iron railings. The drive to the side provides parking before leading through the high timber gates beneath the carport.
The large rear garden is a delight. There are areas of interest the entire length, with well-stocked beds, brick and paved seating areas and a shaped lawn that runs away from the house, with sun terrace set halfway along capturing the evening sunshine. There are maturing trees and shrubs set along the garden. Privacy is provided by mature hedging and an attractive stone wall. A garden room is set beyond the house, adjacent to which is a log store.
