Netherhayton Cottage is a handsome country home with stone, brick and rendered elevations offering over 2,600 sq. ft. of versatile, lightfilled accommodation set across two spacious floors. Netherhayton Cottage has been with the current vendors for over 15 years and has been added to, and improved during that time. The cottage is located on a small country lane with picturesque scenery and peace and quiet, yet only a stone's throw from the busy market town of Ludlow.

The partial brick timber framed and glazed porch opens to the main reception hall with cloakroom, giving access to the charming dual aspect sitting room with its fireplace and stove, bay and French doors to the sunny terrace.

Adjacent is the 17 ft. triple-aspect study with a mirrored feature fireplace and stove and a pair of bright bay windows offering pleasing garden aspects. Further is the elegant formal dining room with double doors opening onto the expansive 31 ft. open-plan kitchen and breakfast room. This sociable space features a range of in-keeping country-style bespoke Kenton Jones cabinetry and integrated appliances, along with an inset cream AGA range, a curved island/breakfast bar and an excellent space to dine beside the fireplace, with multiple glazed garden aspects and doors to the terrace. Alongside is a useful utility/boot room with further cabinetry, sink, space for appliances and easy access from the terrace.

On the first floor, the sizeable principal suite benefits from double doors opening onto a balcony with elevated views over the rolling hills beyond. A modern en suite shower room and walk-in wardrobe complete the principal suite. Three further well-proportioned and tasteful bedrooms complete the floor, well served by a contemporary family bathroom with shower, freestanding rolltop bathtub and an additional WC.
