More details
A delightful cottage, beautifully presented and constructed of brick and flint elevations beneath a clay tiled roof. The front garden, enclosed by low level flint built walls has a pathway that provides access to the front door. The sitting room has a floor to ceiling exposed brick fireplace housing a wood burner together with exposed floorboards. The well appointed kitchen/dining room is complimented by a Travertine tiled floor, while the kitchen itself is well thought out with granite worktops.
A hidden stairwell provides access to the first floor landing which in turn gives way to the main bedroom, second bedroom and a thoughtfully laid out bathroom. From the landing there is access via a fold down ladder to a loft room with a Velux window which is currently utilised as an office space.
From the kitchen area a door gives way to a covered access to the annexe. This brick and flint built structure beneath a pitched clay tiled roof can be used as a reception room/bedroom to the main house or as an independent space. It provides a spacious open plan room with a lantern light, a bank of cupboards in part housing an integral fridge and freezer, together with a shower room off and double glazed French doors to the garden. The annexe represents a clear bed and breakfast opportunity with independent access from the rear of the property.
Outside and to the rear, a paved pathway leads from the kitchen door to the garden where there is a paved patio with steps to the lawn, all enclosed with flower borders. There is a large garden shed and gate to a parking area at the rear that accommodates two vehicles.
