With its appealing architecture and characterful accommodation, Hope Cottage offers a charming living environment where enhancements blend period features in harmony with elements suited to a 21st century lifestyle. The ground floor rooms comprise an elegant drawing room centred around a cast-iron fireplace, with double doors linking to the adjoining conservatory, and a sitting room which offers an alternative spot for down-time. A versatile-use family room with decorative fireplace has an open aperture giving access into the kitchen and dining space at the rear of the home. This sociable setting is light and airy courtesy of a vaulted ceiling, skylight and full-height windows, and French doors offering a seamless transition to the outside. Fitted with cream, panelled cabinetry, topped with wood work surfaces, the kitchen features a Belfast sink and a vintage stove set within the brick chimney breast recess. Ancillary space is provided by an adjacent utility room which incorporates a cloakroom facility. On the first floor, there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the principal room having fitted wardrobe storage which also conceals a neatly-designed en suite shower room.

The property is approached via a gravelled driveway which gives access to the double-bay car port. Beech hedging provides a boundary to the front garden, with steps leading up to the entrance portal and climbing plants adorning the front elevation of the cottage. A paved terrace spans the rear of the property with direct access from the conservatory and dining area offering an extension of the living environment to the garden and opportunities for outdoor dining and relaxation. Timber sleepers
create a low-level retaining wall at the edge of the terrace with steps rising to an area laid to lawn. There is evergreen hedging and mature shrubbery at the boundaries with an outbuilding tucked into the far corner of the plot offering a
garden office/workshop and storage.
