The Property:
The Old Cottage originally dates to the sixteenth century and has a wealth of period features including an Inglenook fireplace, exposed beams, latticed iron windows and the striking ornate twisted chimney stacks which are synonymous with the village. The current owners have undertaken a great deal of work during their ownership and the property is beautifully presented, including a bespoke hand painted kitchen/breakfast room, a new en-suite, as well as internal redecoration and reconfiguration of the garden. The main house has four spacious reception rooms, a refitted cloakroom and a utility room. The first floor has a principal bedroom en-suite and three further bedrooms that are served by a separate bathroom. The annexe which can be integral to the house or completely self-contained has two reception rooms, a kitchen with external access and a shower room to the ground floor with two double bedrooms and a spacious landing on the first floor. This space would be excellent for a multi-generational family or could serve as a nanny or au pairs accommodation or may even provide a separate income as a let, subject to the necessary consents and contributions. Outside there is driveway parking that sits to the front of the detached double garage which has two up and over doors, along with eaves storage and a door to the garden. This has been re-landscaped and is mainly laid to lawn with a terrace directly behind the property and leads to an additional area of decking and terrace.
