Features and description
Reputedly dating from the 15th Century with later addition, Temple Cottage is a Grade II Listed house built of attractive mellow stone elevations, under a part thatch and tiled roof. Sensibly configured and beautifully presented, attributes worthy of particular mention include the splendid, vaulted sitting/drawing room with Jetmaster fire, a smartly fitted kitchen with stone washed granite worktops, a combination of stone and timber flooring and light and bright accommodation throughout. In addition, there is a useful annexe above the car port making the accommodation particularly adaptable.
The property is approached down a long drive into a graveled car parking and turning area, adjoining the oak framed double car port. Leading from the kitchen through French doors, is a delightful Loggia/terrace looking over the gardens. At the rear, steps lead to the annexe, which comprises an open plan living area with basin/worktop and shower room.
The gardens lie principally to the south and are largely laid lawn, with attractive beech hedging, a centrally positioned rose clad pergola, with a mature beech tree on the western boundary. There is a small orchard to the side of the house.
