3 bedroom detached house

Description

Penny Cottage is a charming Grade II listed detached cottage situated in the very heart of the desirable village of Grittleton. Dating back to the early 19th Century showcasing a wealth of character, the cottage is deceptively large offering over 2,100 sq.ft. of accommodation coupled with a generous 200ft garden backing onto fields.

The ground floor opens to an entrance hall with a galleried staircase rising and a downstairs WC off. There are two substantial reception rooms. The living room features a magnificent inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove and bread oven feature. The dining room has been designed with a large gallery window looking across to the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with timber units and has a useful utility room and separate boot room off. On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms and a bathroom which has been refitted with both a shower unit and a free-standing bath benefitting from underfloor heating.

Accessed by a drive at the side, there is ample gated private parking at the rear beside a detached garage. The wonderful garden reaches beyond and is laid mostly to lawn with vibrant borders and a fenced vegetable garden at the far end. A seating terrace is a lovely area in which to host guests complete with a fitted bar.
