THE COTTAGE is a somewhat unique opportunity to acquire an attractive mid terrace cottage situated in this pleasant location amongst open countryside, yet set within grounds which extend to about 0.69 of an acre. The property itself provides nicely presented accommodation with its front door opening into an entrance porch which in turn leads to a double reception room with two windows looking out to the front across oopn countryside and divided centrally by a brick built fireplace. There is a rear lobby accessed from the dining room where stairs rise to the first floor which also gives access to a ground floor bathroom which incorporates a 3-piece suite and a jacuzzi bath. The sitting room features a log burning stove set within the brick built fireplace creating an attractive focal point to the room and has a door opening to the kitchen. There is a good range of modern storage cupboards contained with the kitchen area, complemented by square-edged working counters and a range of integrated appliances which include a double oven, electric hob with extractor fan over and fridge-freezer. There is a window and door leading into a garden room to the rear which creates an attractive additional reception room with double glazed windows and double doors opening out to and overlooking the lovely rear garden. Upstairs, the first floor landing leads to two bedrooms; both of which look out to the front enjoying distant views over surrounding countryside and a nicely appointed shower room containing a 3-piece suite which serves each bedroom.
