We have pleasure in offering to the market this charming brick and pan tiled semi detached cottage tucked away in a pleasant backwater at the heart of this well regarded village.
In 2021 the property had benefitted from a top to bottom programme of sympathetic renovation including complete rewiring, re-plumbing and re-piping including updated central heating, full damp proofing course, replacement roof, new kitchen with solid arabesque quartz work surfaces, soft closing cupboards and drawers, all new appliances and Amtico LVT flooring to the ground floor.
The property offers around 800sq.ft. of internal accommodation exuding a great deal of charm and character, many rooms offering a wealth of features with the two main receptions having heavily beamed ceilings and the main sitting room, which benefits from a westerly aspect in the rear garden, having an attractive fireplace with inset log burner. The kitchen, also having a heavily beamed ceiling, has been thoughtfully updated with a generous range of units, integrated appliances and quartz preparation surfaces. To the first floor there are two double bedrooms both of which overlook the rear garden, a cleverly thought out landing area providing utility storage space and a bathroom with a modern but traditional style suite.
In addition the property is tastefully decorated throughout, with Farrow & Ball finish, benefitting from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating and is presented to the market with no upward chain.
As well as the interior the property occupies a pleasant lot with a low maintenance courtyard garden to the easterly side and the main garden lying to the west, benefitting from midday to evening sun and mainly laid to lawn with well stocked borders enclosed by feather edged board fencing with parking space at the foot.
Overall this is a delightful, beautifully presented home which has been lightly used as a second home and a successful 5 star holiday-let since 2021, ideal for a wide range of prospective purchasers with viewing coming highly recommended to appreciate both it's location and the accommodation on offer.
