Accommodation
From the moment you arrive through the welcoming porch, you’re transported into a warm and inviting setting steeped in period features and timeless appeal. The spacious sitting room is a true highlight, where a delightful inglenook fireplace fitted with a gas fire (currently not working) forms the heart of the space. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, radiating traditional character with its exposed beams and cosy atmosphere. Just off the sitting room lies an elegant dining room, where a second charming inglenook fireplace adds character and warmth—an ideal setting for entertaining family and friends, whether it’s a special occasion or a relaxed evening in. Continuing on through to the kitchen/breakfast room, you’ll find a space that perfectly balances modern practicality with rustic charm. Well-equipped with a range of wall, base, and drawer units, along with space for a freestanding cooker and under-counter appliances, the kitchen provides generous storage and functionality while maintaining a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Thoughtfully laid out, it flows through to a light-filled study – a wonderfully versatile room that could serve as a home office, snug, or creative space. Towards the rear, a hallway leads to a practical utility room, offering useful storage along with plumbing for laundry appliances. Completing the ground floor is a neatly presented shower room, featuring a shower enclosure, wash basin, and WC.
Upstairs, three generously proportioned bedrooms await, all filled with natural light and rich in character and charm. Two of the rooms are enhanced by built-in wardrobes, offering practical storage while maximising floor space. Completing the first-floor accommodation is a well-equipped family bathroom, featuring a bathtub, wash basin, and WC, along with a handy airing cupboard.
Outside
The property boasts a fabulous, south-facing rear garden — a true highlight of this charming home. Generous in size, fully enclosed, and offering excellent privacy, the garden provides a tranquil retreat ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. A paved seating area with a feature pond creates a peaceful spot to enjoy the surroundings, while a well-positioned summer house adds charm and versatility, perfect for use as a hobby space or simply unwinding with a good book. Adding to the appeal is a former dairy building, now offering superb potential as a workshop, complete with its own WC — ideal for creative pursuits, storage, or even a home-based business. Mature planting, a lush lawn, and established trees complete this delightful outdoor space, which offers a wonderful blend of character, seclusion, and practicality.
The property is approached via a charming front garden, found behind a low retaining stone wall that enhances the cottage’s kerb appeal. Planted with mature shrubs and easy-care borders, it offers a welcoming and attractive entrance to the home. To the side of the property, a generous driveway provides tandem parking for multiple vehicles, leading to a useful car port for sheltered parking or storage. The charm continues outside with the presence of original hitching rings – a delightful nod to the property’s history, adding to its character and unique appeal.
