We have great pleasure in offering to the market this simply stunning, tastefully renovated, double fronted, period 1850s cottage occupying an established, landscaped, corner plot within this highly regarded and well served village.
This unique home has seen a complete back to brick programme of sympathetic renovation and modernisation, carried out with a considerable level of thought and attention to detail and completed to a high specification to create what is now a beautifully appointed, versatile, period home which combines both traditional and contemporary elements with the benefits of modern construction and efficiency.
The property stands beautifully on it's corner plot with attractive brick elevations beneath a pantiled roof and replacement high quality double glazed cottage style windows with plantation shutters behind which lies versatile living over two floors. Every room offers its own elements of character having exposed beams, handmade oak cottage latch doors, attractive oak flooring to the majority of the ground floor, brush metal electrical fittings and relatively neutral decoration. These are combined with more contemporary elements including attractive black finish double glazed sliding openers to the main reception, TV/Ethernet cabling in the kitchen and main living area, part vaulted ceilings with inset skylights and a combination of traditional and contemporary sanitary wear which all combine to create a truly interesting home.
The accommodation comprises an initial storm porch leading through into an inner hallway an, in turn, the main open plan level of ground floor accommodation comprising a pleasant dual aspect sitting room with exposed brick chimney breast and inset solid fuel stove which links through into a living space with full height, sliding doors flooding this area with light and leading out into the garden. The part open plan kitchen is beautifully appointed with a generous range of units finished in heritage style colours, including an internally back lit butler's pantry, providing an excellent level of storage. In addition the central island unit complements the main units, providing an excellent working area with quartz preparation surfaces and integrated appliances including a Neff hide n' slide oven, combi microwave oven, dishwasher, fridge and freezer and induction hob. This combined space creates a fantastic everyday living/entertaining area, flooded with light benefitting from windows to two elevations as well as part vaulted ceiling with inset skylight.
The remainder of the ground floor accommodation has been cleverly designed to create a ground floor reception/bedroom which links through into a beautifully appointed ensuite bath/shower room which combined creates an excellent master suite. This allows the property to be purely utilised, in later life, as single storey living. To the first floor there are two further double bedrooms with central Jack n' Jill shower room.
As well as the main accommodation the property occupies a delightful, established, beautifully landscaped corner plot having private gardens at the rear with a large paved terrace leading up on a raised lawn with well stocked perimeter borders, well placed exterior lighting, weather proof power sockets and access into an attached double garage with twin electric doors, power and light, providing secure parking.
In addition the property benefits from an integrated alarm system and CCTV making it ideal as a lock up and leave property, potentially for those downsizing from considerably larger dwellings and appreciating an individual, high specification home, within this well regarded village setting.
Overall viewing is the only way to truly appreciate the beautifully appointed level of accommodation within this bespoke and quite unique home.
