A traditional extended period cottage set in approximately 0.38 acres, featuring a separate self contained annexe, ample parking, and a double garage.
Description
The front door opens into an enclosed porch that leads into the entrance hall, featuring original terracotta tiled flooring, exposed beams, and an open fireplace. The entrance hall provides access to the playroom, which also retains the terracotta tiled flooring and beams, and includes an open fireplace.
To the other side of the entrance hall is the sitting room, featuring exposed beams and an open fireplace with a fitted wood-burning stove. A study is accessed from the side of the sitting room, offering a perfect space for working from home.
Steps and folding doors lead to the conservatory/garden room, which opens via French doors onto the rear patio. Internal French doors connect to the family room, which can also be accessed via the entrance hall.
The kitchen/breakfast room enjoys views over the rear garden and is fitted with painted wooden units, granite worktops, and a contrasting central island with an oak worktop. It includes an Aga, integrated electric hob, oven, dishwasher, and a large larder cupboard.
Off the kitchen is a rear lobby with a door to the garden and access to the utility room. This area connects to a self-contained annexe (currently privately let out) comprising a multi-purpose studio room with a vaulted ceiling, kitchenette, built-in wardrobes, and a shower room. French doors provide private access to the garden without passing through the main house. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a cloakroom, accessed from the playroom.
From the entrance hall, a turning staircase leads to the first-floor landing. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect overlooking the rear garden and includes built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom. There are three further double bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes and storage. A family bathroom and a separate shower room complete the accommodation.
Outside, the property sits in a private corner plot enclosed by hedging behind picket fencing at the front and mixed hedging at the rear. Access is via Whitehall Lane through a five-bar timber gate onto a gravelled driveway, providing ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles and access to the double garage. There is side access to a large brick-paved patio at the rear of the house, with an additional separate patio off the annexe. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature planted beds and borders. In total, the plot measures approximately 0.38 acres.
