DESCRIPTION
North End Road is a no through lane at the very edge of the village and number 5 at the end of a small terrace of houses built in 1892 named West End Villas. The elevations are red brick beneath a slate roof with handsome sash windows to the original cottage and double glazed casement windows adorning the extension.
The accommodation is very well cared for and has retained a cosy, period feel with many features of the era. In the sitting room is the original working fireplace that has a tiled hearth and then in the dining room the woodburning stove also sits upon a tiled hearth but this time within an attractive tall fireplace that to one side of the chimney breast has a cupboard and shelves. The sitting room is dual aspect and the dining room has a stable door to outside. There is a lovely kitchen and breakfast room, the kitchen comprising deep handmade wooden cupboards and a solid wood worktop incorporating a butlers sink. Remaining is a wonderful 2 oven Aga and plumbing is in place for a concealed washing machine and dishwasher. The room enjoys lots of natural light and at the end are double doors to the garden.
On the first floor is a good size double bedroom with, in the corner, its own wc and wash basin. There is a study or nursery and a full bathroom with a white Victoriana suite, over the bath is a shower screen and Bristan overhead shower. Up the next staircase is another charming double bedroom. Converted from the loft space it has velux windows, under eaves storage, a vaulted ceiling, and a triangular alcove fitted with shelving.
OUTSIDE
The frontage is enclosed by wrought iron railings and a hand gate. Adjacent the path up to the entrance is a patch of flowers and shrubs. The access down the side to the back is gated.
To the rear the garden stretches to over 80ft in length made up of a stone terrace and seating area and the lawn, the latter flanked by planted beds and trees including a Victoria plum, apple trees and a cherry tree. At the bottom of the lawn is hardstanding on much of which stands a timber shed, which is watertight but has seen better days.
Beyond the garden is farmland and countryside and the upper floors of the cottage especially benefit from the view.
