3 Bedroom House - Detached
A charming detached individual character cottage which has undergone a significant level of extension and refurbishment over recent years to provide a delightful family home situated on a superb generous established plot which extends to approximately 0.4 of an acre.
The current owners have created a wonderful area for those who enjoy the life of horses, with a purpose - built stable block which includes 3 stables, a washdown area and a tack room. Sensibly fenced to enable secure access for the safety of the horses, there is access to the neighbouring and gated side paddock as a monthly charge (more details are available from the Agent). Grazing & Livery on the adjacent yard is available by separate negotiation with the Land Owner, per horse, which will include menage (1 paddock for winter and 1 for summer) OR a reduced rate if menage is not required. Whilst power and light have been attached to the Stables, the source of water is currently from a hosepipe from the main house.
The original cottage benefitted from a two-storey gabled extension to the rear elevation which has provided for an additional sitting room and master bedroom above with superb views across the garden and fields beyond. In addition, there is a refitted cottage style kitchen and bathroom with four-piece suite as well as additional second cloakroom to the first floor.
There is the versatile addition of a Sun / Garden Room to create a fourth flexible reception space with double doors out onto the extensive patio area of the rear garden. Double glazing and neutral decoration throughout. Walk in, put your furniture down and do nothing!
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate this three bedroom, four reception cottage situated in a spot ideal for local communications and commuting. The accommodation in brief comprises Entrance Porch, Entrance hall / Snug, Sun / Garden Room, Sitting Room, Separate Dining area which is open plan to the Kitchen, a Utility Room… whilst on the first floor are the three bedrooms, four piece suite bathroom (with W.C.) and a separate W.C.
The significant plot-size is one of the main selling factors of the property, being particularly generous with double gated access leading onto a large gravel driveway and detached sectional garage. The gardens run to all sides, the majority to the rear, making an ideal property for those wanting a more self-sufficient lifestyle.
