4 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Eye
This picture postcard Grade II Listed cottage sits within immaculate gardens extending to approximately 0.36 Acres (0.147 Hectares) at the end of a No Through Lane. Outstanding three bedroom interior beautifully finished and maintained in addition to garden 'Pavilion' guest accommodation.
Rose Cottage is a Grade II Listed former farmhouse believed to date from the first half of the 16th Century along with similar but 18th Century addition to the left hand side. A later still pantiled and brick addition can be seen to the right. Set back from the lane and approached via a beautifully kept driveway, this quintessential English country cottage sits in similarly beautifully kept gardens extending to approximately 0.36 Acres (0.147Hectares).
In addition to the main accommodation the grounds contain a fabulous self-contained 'Pavillion' kitted out with shower room, kitchenette, bedroom and living space. Suitable for guest accommodation or even AirBnB the space proved invaluable when in April 2021 the building suffered fire damage and the owners were forced to decamp to the garden living quarters. After extensive renovation Rose Cottage is now as close to a 'Brand New' home as one is going to get with a Grade II Listed property. The cottage has been rebuilt from roof plate level and upstairs one can enjoy the oak timbered roof and the saved Crown post. The Listing Record suggests this property was much admired and still retains many period and original features including inglenook fireplaces, interesting boarded doors, exposed timbers etc. Both the interior and exterior have been sensitively attended to including new traditional styled double or secondary glazed windows, replastered in lime on traditional lathes, internal wiring (to include USB & C sockets and dimmable LED downlighters throughout), plumbing, heating, kitchen and bathroom fittings etc along with all the appropriate finishing touches such as luxury vinyl tiled and carpeted floors. The rethatched roof now features modern day protection to include two layers of FirePro Plus PU28 membranes offering 3 hours protection along with a further waterproof membrane. These measures negate the need for sensors. The stylish kitchen is set off by quartz worktop and bathroom and shower fittings are all in a fresh white and chrome style. Collectively, the internal space extends to a tad under 2300 Sq Ft. Outside, the immaculate gardens are a gardeners dream with various areas of lawn all set off by wonderful borders and linked by equally immaculate pathways. The garage has been sacrificed to the gardener and is a base camp to the Kitchen Garden formed from well used raised beds. Do come and view.
