Church Cottage is simply the ‘quintessential’ character period cottage in need of some updating located in the ‘quintessential’ English village setting. Located in a conservation area adjacent to the picturesque Grade I thirteenth century St Peter's Church and The Manor House, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a double fronted 18th century detached cottage set in mature gardens in excess of a quarter acre. Approached via an unadopted lane with exclusive access to the Church and Manor House, Church Cottage is set in an elevated position with views towards the Manor gardens and has the benefit of a private drive which in turn leads to a detached double garage with potential to convert into ancillary accommodation*. Stone steps to the front of the cottage lead to the front door which opens onto a good sized reception hall providing access to an open plan living/dining room featuring a stone inglenook fireplace with bread oven and full height window overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen has been fitted with a white timber range of floor and wall units with integrated appliances and steps descend to a cellar with stock brick floor. The cellar has restricted head height of about 5’ and houses a modern gas fired Baxi boiler. A small single storey extension to the rear provides a useful ground floor cloakroom.On the first floor Church Cottage includes three good sized bedrooms served by a bathroom fitted with white sanitary ware and includes a thermostatic shower above the bath.The rear the garden is of particular note. Laid predominantly to lawn this south/easterly facing outstanding plot includes mature trees and shrubs with views toward the church and churchyard. The church grounds adjoin the cottage grounds to two sides. Directly behind the house is a patio for alfresco dining which in turn provides pedestrian access to a detached garage with light and power.
