SITUATION & DESCRIPTION
Fern Cottage is situated in the parish of Knighton-upon-Teme nestled in the heart of the Teme Valley. The market town of Tenbury Wells is just a short drive away and offers many facilities including a variety of shops and services, a library, a doctors' surgery, a cottage hospital, cinema, and a range of clubs and societies. The property is within the catchment areas for the popular Lindridge C of E Primary School and Tenbury High Ormiston Academy. There are many footpaths in the vicinity from which you can really appreciate the surrounding countryside.
Fern Cottage is a Victorian semi-detached country cottage which has been extended over the years to provide spacious accommodation, mixing character features such as original cast iron fireplaces with unique and impressive architect-designed space, particularly the lofty sitting room with a fully glazed elevation overlooking the beautiful gardens. The property has been tastefully updated by the present owners with new bathroom and shower room suites, redecoration throughout, the addition of LPG fired central heating with a modern Worcester combi boiler, and a sewage treatment plant shared with the adjoining property has also recently been installed. The property has pretty cottage gardens with the front garden enjoying a south-westerly aspect, an attached garage and gated driveway parking.
ACCOMMODATION
The entrance hall has a quarry tiled floor, an open cloaks area, and doors through to the study and a double bedroom. Steps lead down to a glazed door into the impressive full height sitting room/garden room, which has a quarry tiled floor, a Clearview woodburner with a brick surround, and a south facing fully glazed elevation incorporating French doors to the garden. An opening leads through to the dining room which has a fireplace (not in use). The kitchen has a range of green painted wooden fitted units incorporating an inset sink/drainer and a separate ceramic bowl sink, space for a range cooker and fridge/freezer, plumbing for a dishwasher and washing machine, and an opening leads through to the breakfast room which has a glazed door opening onto the front garden. The boiler room houses the Worcester combi boiler. An inner hall leads to the bathroom which has a slipper freestanding bath, pedestal basin and wc, and to a separate shower room with a Triton electric shower in a large cubicle, a hand basin, wc and heated towel rail.
From the hall a door opens onto stairs that rise up to a spacious first floor landing which is utilised as a fourth bedroom and could be partitioned to provide an additional bedroom or bathroom; and off which there is a double bedroom with a cast iron fireplace (not in use) and a built-in wardrobe; and a single bedroom with a cast iron fireplace (not in use) and a built-in wardrobe.
OUTSIDE
The gated driveway provides ample parking space for several cars and leads to the attached garage/workshop. The gently sloping large and delightful mature gardens extend to the north and south and host a profusion of beds and borders with specimen ornamental and fruit trees, abundant flowers, shrubs and sweeping lawns, gravel and patio seating and entertaining areas, a pizza oven, a timber summerhouse and greenhouse.
