The kitchen now with the addition of a cosy snug extends into the rear garden and French doors enjoy a pleasant South Westerly aspect. The kitchen fitted by Shortland Craft is hand painted and features a mains gas fired Aga, granite tops including breakfast bar and has range of integrated appliances.

The landing, which almost stretched the full length of the cottage is bathed in natural light and provides access to five bedrooms and a family bathroom. Bedroom one enjoys a dual aspect, high ceiling and has its own luxury en suite bathroom which looks out over the rear garden and includes twin wash hand basins. Bedroom five is currently used as a study with purpose-built furniture available by separate negotiation. Bedroom two also has its own en suite with large double shower.

Outside
The property enjoys a mature setting, standing in grounds of around 0.27 acres in total. The cottage which almost extends the full length of this quiet lane is approached though electric wooden double gates which are set into a high, brick boundary wall. A generous courtyard finished in York stone provides hardstanding for several vehicles and access to an Oak framed double garage. The courtyard and cottage are connected by a stone path which is flanked by raised beds and discreet post lights. The rear garden provides an idyllic back drop to this rare home and several mature trees, including a large Hornbeam provide a high degree of privacy. Highly manicured striped lawns form much of the rear garden and a wide, York stone path extends from the cottage to an impressive range of outbuildings. Several seating areas within the garden have been created ideal for soaking up the peace and tranquillity provided by the location.
