Set in this much favoured quiet country lane, you will come across this 18th century Blackberry Cottage, known locally as the house with all the flowers. Some 50 years ago the current owners rescued the house from demolition and painstakingly set about rescuing and extending the property and creating a perfect family home.
The entrance hall has a stable door to the side and the kitchen is off the hallway with the back door opening on to a large patio.
The property retains a wealth of period features. Of note is the stunning inglenook fireplace in the principal reception room. Both reception rooms offer views over protected fields and the double aspect lounge has a bay window seat to the rear taking full advantage of the delightful established south facing rear gardens which extends to a 0/2 plot.
A rear hallway provides a study area and access to one of the two cellars. At this end of the house is a large double bedroom and shower room with WC. The first floor provides a large family bathroom. There are two substantial bedrooms with connected doorway. A landing at the western end of the house offers a further bedroom and a second staircase to the ground floor. Externally there is a driveway giving off road parking for several vehicles leading to a double garage/workshop.
The stunning grounds have been a life’s work culminating in a beautiful array of mature specimen trees and flower borders giving total seclusion. The rear garden has a large greenhouse, summer house and a fishpond.

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
