4 bedroom detached house for sale

Tudor Cottage, a Grade II listed dwelling steeped in history and charm, presents a captivating blend of antiquity and modernity. Its origins trace back to the 16th Century, embellished over time with a delightful oak framed garden room, adding to its allure. Partially thatched, the roof underwent replacement in 2018, ensuring the property's integrity. Meticulously maintained and enhanced by its current owners, this residence boasts numerous upgrades including Karndean flooring, new carpets, a refurbished fireplace, updated bathrooms and kitchen, bespoke secondary glazing, guttering replacement, and a newly installed resin driveway and rear terrace.

Entering through the front door reveals an inviting entrance hall bridging the original timber-framed cottage with a 1998 extension, leading to a cloakroom. The drawing room exudes warmth with its inglenook fireplace adorned by a hand-cut stone hearth and a contemporary floating log burner. Flowing seamlessly into the cozy sitting room with wooden floorboards and a feature fireplace, a back staircase ascends to bedroom four.

Adjacent to the hall, the spacious dining room, with double-glazed French doors opening to the garden room, forms a cohesive space for living and entertaining. The garden room, bathed in natural light, offers serene garden views, complemented by a ceiling lantern and folding windows and doors, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor spaces.

The impressive kitchen/breakfast room, upgraded with new worktops and a Falcon dual fuel range cooker, invites culinary pursuits. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, fridge, and microwave oven, with a large utility room adjacent, providing additional functionality.

Ascending the stairs from the bridge landing, the first floor reveals a study landing and the principal bedroom with an en suite featuring a bath and corner shower enclosure. Three further double bedrooms are served by a double shower room and a refitted shower room.
