A delightful three bedroom detached cottage with pretty gardens and a detached double garage set in a semi-rural location with lovely views over the countryside to the south and south west.

The property is very well presented and has been maintained to a high standard and believed to have been originally built in the 1930’s and extended in more recent years. The current owners have recently part-built an extension to the north-east façade of the house with a view to extending the kitchen area but, it will require completing. The plan was to open directly from the existing kitchen into the new extension.

The floorplans provide an excellent overview of the accommodation, which is arranged over two floors offering some 1500 sq ft of living space – with the new extension adding another 190 sq ft. Briefly, on the ground floor are two reception rooms, an ‘L’-shaped kitchen breakfast room with utility area and a large conservatory which opens onto the gardens on three sides. On the first floor there are three bedrooms - one with an en suite bathroom - and a large family shower room.

Outside
The entrance to the property leads up onto a driveway with parking space for a number of cars and access to the garage and gardens.
The house is set within well maintained gardens, a large patio area adjacent to the driveway gives access to the garage and an area of lawn to the east side of the house which is enclosed by well-tended flower boarders, maturing plants and shrubs and attractive paving. There is a terrace which is covered by an arbour and a further patio and terrace to the west side of the house with access to a summer house. A further gate gives access from the driveway to the front of the house.

There is a large, detached double garage with power and lighting and providing excellent storage space; a side door gives access to the patio area next to the driveway.

Mains electricity & water; private drainage. Oil fired central heating and hot water.
