Description

A lovely cottage surprisingly spacious and beautifully maintained by the current owners as a family home over many years.

A well-proportioned and immaculately presented property with a light and airy feel with good height ceilings and fitted with quality fixtures and fittings.

The property also benefits from a well designed, modern extension to the rear.

Entering the cottage there is a light and generous entrance hall with an understairs cupboard. On the right is a study with built in desks stretching the length of the room with a number of fitted cupboards on both sides, providing a lovely large space for working from home.

The cosy sitting room has attractive window seats, an alcove and wall cupboard and a feature inglenook fireplace of Thorverton stone with a red tiled hearth.

There is a gas log burning stove which makes the room very cosy in the winter months.

The attractive kitchen at the rear of the cottage has hand crafted bespoke cupboards in a traditional style with plenty of room to cook, dine and socialise.

There are solid Iroko wood worktops which offer food preparation areas on either side of the modern four ring induction hob, double fridge freezer, washing machine, dish washer and larder.

Behind the gates is a covered yard which is a very useful storage area and has a feature trough with plants, and provides access to the rear of the property.

A built-in airing cupboard houses the gas boiler providing the property with gas central heating throughout and over this bathroom is a mezzanine floor where the loft space is reached via a ladder.
