Delightful Grade II listed two bedroom cottage built circa 1700, with charming south facing country cottage garden, quietly located in desirable village of Hinton Charterhouse, south of Bath. The cottage benefits from bathroom, shower room, en suite cloakroom, conservatory and large basement ideal for storage.
The vendor says: “The sitting room in this lovely Grade II listed cottage is my favourite room in the house. There is a huge inglenook fireplace with wood burner, so it is very cosy in the winter, and the window seats and alcoves really add to the period charm. I have put in a new kitchen and shower room downstairs and have added a conservatory which looks out on the charming south facing cottage garden. Upstairs there are two large double bedrooms, one on each floor, both with fitted wardrobes, one with a bathroom and the other with a cloakroom. There are many gorgeous features, such as the old wooden doors with original latches.”
“Downstairs we are very lucky to have a huge cellar which can be used for storage or as a gym: a really useful additional feature.”
“The garden is a quintessential English country garden, south facing with mature shrubs and bushes and roses in the summer and honeysuckle. Goldfinches, woodpeckers and great tits are frequent visitors.”
“The village is very lively. There are two pubs, The Rose and Crown and the Stag. The Memorial Hall offers many activities such as an art club and pilates class, and there is also a shop, post office, twelfth century church, and very popular cricket club, which is opposite the house. There is a lovely park and play area. The village fete in July is well attended and there are stalls, a dog show, raffle, children’s entertainer and a fabulous spread of teas, followed by a band and barn dance in the evening.”
“The bus goes in to Bath every half an hour and there are private school buses in to Bath, which is about 5 miles away, too. The primary school in Freshford has a bus which leaves from Stag Inn car park. There are many country walks from here to the Limpley Stoke valley and also to Wellow and it is the ideal place to have a dog.”
“I have really enjoyed living in this picturesque house in this very friendly village, which has so much to offer, yet is really accessible to Bath and Frome.”
