Key information
Features and description
A unique unlisted period property occupying an idyllic rural setting with 0.26 acres of private gardens backing onto the Brett Valley
Walnut Tree Cottage is a most individual semi-detached property which provides an abundance of period charm. The original, two storey part of the property is believed to date from the 17th Century, with a later single storey addition which extends to some 20 meters to the north. The original part has recently been refurbished comprising the main reception room with focal inglenook fireplace, which has been rebuilt with the installation of a new wood burner. The remaining ground floor accommodation to this part of the building is an adjoining double bedroom/study with cloakroom. The first floor provides a landing with a further WC, and two further double bedrooms. The sizable main bedroom also gives ample space for an ensuite (if required) as well as built-in wardrobes. Of particular note, which also corresponds to the entire ground floor, the property enjoys far-reaching views over neighbouring fields and the Brett Valley beyond.
The entrance hall and adjacent kitchen, fitted with numerous oak units and worksurfaces, forms part of the single storey addition which is built of soft red brick and is probably Victorian. This range also includes the bathroom, utility room, boiler room and garage, with a rear lean-to conservatory/garden room with sliding doors onto the garden.
Outside, the private, west facing gardens are an important feature to the property, which comprises a rear patio and a large expanse of lawn giving the same attractive vista to the west. The lawn gently descends to the entire western boundary, with raised flower and vegetable borders, ornamental pond, and greenhouse. To the north of the property is the driveway which provides ample off-road parking and access to an attached double garage (giving potential to convert into further living accommodation, as does the boiler room). The driveway tapers off to the far northern boundary, with two further timber outbuildings.
