3 bedroom detached house for sale

A charming and beautifully presented three-bedroom thatched cottage, rebuilt in 2001 and offered for sale with no onward chain. Situated in a peaceful and tucked-away position, the property enjoys a good degree of privacy, with established gardens backing onto open fields and the added benefit of a detached double garage/workshop.

Approached via a stable door to the front, the entrance opens into a welcoming dining room, with tiled flooring and views to both the front and rear. A pair of double doors opens out to the garden, providing a pleasant outlook across the neighbouring fields. From here, a beamed archway leads into the kitchen/breakfast room, a thoughtfully designed space with a vaulted ceiling, bespoke hand-made units, wooden worktops, a traditional Butler sink, integrated appliances and a fitted gas-fired Aga. The kitchen also provides access to a useful loft storage area and opens into the garden room, which enjoys open views and direct access to the garden via glazed doors.

A further opening from the dining area leads through to the sitting room, a generous and light-filled space with windows to three sides and attractive countryside views. A brick fireplace with slate hearth houses a fitted log burner, creating a central feature. A stable door provides further access to the side garden and a recessed seating area adds to the room’s flexibility.

Also on the ground floor is a third bedroom, a bright double-aspect room, along with a shower/utility room complete with shower cubicle, WC, wash basin and space for laundry appliances.

Stairs rise from the sitting room to the first floor landing, where vaulted ceilings continue the sense of space. The main bedroom overlooks neighbouring fields and includes a range of fitted wardrobes and its own en suite shower room. The second bedroom, also with a vaulted ceiling and front-facing aspect, has its own en suite with tiled shower and fitted storage.

Outside, the property enjoys two separate driveways, each accessed via double opening gates and providing ample off-road parking. The first leads to a detached double garage/workshop, equipped with power, lighting, a pitched roof offering storage and an additional rear store. The second driveway provides further parking, with an outside tap, covered wood store and garden shed.

The gardens are attractively arranged and offer a high degree of privacy, with lawned areas, established beds, raised planters and a patio that wraps around the front and side of the property. The setting is particularly appealing, with views over open paddocks beyond the boundary hedging and fencing.

This well-maintained and individual home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a peaceful village setting with practical and well-balanced accommodation throughout.
