Popeswood Cottage is anything but 'cottagey' - this is a spacious and elegant home of over 2,700 sq ft, with all double bedrooms, ample reception space and scope to create a two-storey annex without compromising the main house.

With hot piped under-floor heating in the hallway, office, lounge and dining room, lovely open fires and sash windows, there's warmth and character throughout. The natural timber flooring gives a timeless and practical backdrop for any décor, and this is complemented with a mixture of natural stripped pine, glazed and Georgian period doors.

The kitchen, which overlooks the garden, is classic style with terracotta clay floor tiles, a statement-piece brick chimney breast and wood-burning stove. There's space for kitchen table, but the dining room is far too good to save for formal occasions!

The other reception rooms are tastefully decorated, and provide space for quiet time in the snug, family time in the lounge, and focus time in the office.

The room labelled 'Annex Reception' on the floor plan is adjoined to the main house, but could easily be converted as a separate dwelling. We understand there's water supply and waste ready to re-connect, and this could create a kitchenette or bathroom. This wing has its own door and entrance, and a first floor bedroom (or bedroom six of the main house).

Upstairs in the main house has five double bedrooms, with fireplaces, Georgian bar windows and an elegant landing. There's a practical bathroom 'for kids' and a sumptuous hotel-feel bathroom with roll-top bath, lovely wood panelling, and separate shower enclosure.

There's a charming and practical boot room / utility with sink, plenty of storage, cloakroom and a stable door to the outside.

English Heritage give buildings Grade II Listed status for good reason, and this is a beautiful example of late Georgian architecture - an era of excellent styling and lasting quality.

Some of the grounds do back onto a main road, but the wrap-around garden gives plenty of garden space to the rear of the house - this gives options for sunshine throughout the day, and no part of the grounds are overlooked.

Do take a look at the virtual tour link to get a feel for this lovely home, and please contact Nick or Teresa to ask questions or to arrange your viewing. This is a beautiful home, and we're looking forward to showing buyers around!

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on May 13, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on May 13, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on March 2, 2023 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
