And Alice said, “When I used to read fairy tales, I fancied that kind of thing never happened, and now here I am in the middle of one!", and we’re sure you’ll be feeling the same when you enter the doors of the beautiful Lewis Cottage! It may be hidden away like a secret escape but once you arrive you will be amazed by this lovely cottage which has been lovingly extended and renovated by the current owners. Upon entering the kitchen French doors, you are greeted with a light open space that is the kitchen and dining room. With white resin worktops, a contemporary mix of white and black wall and base units, a pop of red with the range master cooker and integrated appliances which include; dishwasher, fridge, freezer and wine cooler, you will instantly think you are in a fairly tale. The shiny tiled floor continues through to the dining area which is again bright with a window overlooking the gorgeous views across the back fields, there is a utility room also just off the kitchen which holds space for a washing machine, coats and shoes and through another door is a white W.C and sink. Back in the kitchen there is a door that leads out to the back garden and on the far left the kitchen opens in to the next three downstairs rooms which are all semi open plan but separated by walls and two cosy logs burners to fill the rooms with warmth, white washed walls throughout the whole downstairs gives Lewis Cottage a Cornish cottage feel. The snug is directly off the kitchen making a great versatile space as this could be a dining room, with real wood flooring, a window to the side, real beams (and some that may even deceive the keenest of eyes), this room shares the first log burner with the next room to the left, the lovely spacious lounge with two large windows and a door leading to the front gardens and driveway, real wood flooring continuing from the snug and the other side of the log burner. Back to the snug you walk past the decorative stairs case which leads to the first floor and also down to the cellar, but walking past them takes you to the sitting room, the third reception room which again has the same wood flooring, wooden beams to the ceilings and is both contemporary but characterful and holds the second large log burner which then gives benefit to the conservatory. Through the door from the sitting room is the vast conservatory that sits along the back of the cottage benefitting from the south facing rear garden and far reaching fields, a lovely Indian stone flooring giving this space a relaxing feel. Back through the sitting room to the stairs case, down stairs is a dry cellar which also has Indian stone flooring, a radiator, lighting and power and a door that leads out and up to the side of the property, great for muddy dogs coming in and out! The ceiling is low but this cellar could still be utilised as a room. Back upstairs you then head up to the first floor landing and you decide which way to go! I’ll take you to the left which leads to two large double bedrooms, the first has three windows around the side and back offering wonderful views across the fields afar, a recessed wardrobe space and chimney breast, next is their spare double room, very spacious with two windows again overlooking the field views, back down the corridor on the left is the family bathroom which is beautiful and contemporary, with a decorative tiled floor, white suite comprising, large inviting bath with mixer tap, W.C, separate shower cubicle with mains fed shower, towel rail and a combined storage and sink unit with mixer tap, next up is bedroom three which again is a large double, window overlooking the front driveway aspect and an oak door leading back in the family bathroom creating a Jack ‘n’ Jill style bathroom arrangement. To the right of the long corridor you firstly come to bedroom five which is a small double still, window overlooking the side and lovely views again, and finally at the end of the corridor you reach bedroom one, which again is spacious with an initial dressing area for wardrobes and drawers, then opens up, a window to the front aspect overlooking the front garden, an en-suite which is fully tiled, white W.C, small corner sink, shower enclosure with sliding doors and an electric shower over. The whole cottage just keeps giving incredible space, benefitting from uPVC windows throughout but filled with character too, you really will feel like Alice in Wonderland! And outside is just as magical, a good sized driveway and parking for several cars, the rear garden area is all decked and a fantastic entertaining space with barbecue area and a real sun trap, to the front and left of the driveway you have a lovely lawned area where there is a “shed” to the back which the current vendors use as a bar for entertaining family and friends. It really does tick all the boxes so don’t fall asleep and get lost in wonderland, call the office today to book a viewing quick before this beauty gets snapped up by someone else my dear![use Contact Agent Button]
