Westmead Cottage is a charming detached period home, beautifully constructed with white rendered stone, believed to include traditional Wychert elevations, and topped with an attractive thatched roof. Over the years, sympathetic extensions to both sides of the property have enhanced the accommodation, creating a versatile and well-balanced home arranged over two floors.
The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
A welcoming entrance vestibule provides a practical introduction to the property. The ground floor offers a delightful living room featuring a recently exposed inglenook fireplace, adding warmth and character. The spacious kitchen/dining room has been recently refurbished and is fitted with an attractive Shaker-style range of units, integrated appliances, and elegant stone tiled flooring. An inner hallway leads to a stylishly updated shower room with plumbing for a washing machine, while a further reception room, complete with a feature stock brick fireplace, provides excellent flexibility and could also serve as a third bedroom.
On the first floor are two generous double bedrooms, including a substantial fitted wardrobe to the principal bedroom. A recently created family bathroom completes the accommodation and features a beautiful freestanding roll-top bath.
The cottage enjoys an enviable position at the entrance to a quiet single-track lane leading from the picturesque High Street. While access to the property is pedestrian only, on-street parking is available within the village.
The front garden is a particular highlight and has been thoughtfully landscaped by the current owners. A pathway leads to the front door, while a large elevated terrace provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Well-stocked flower borders add colour and interest throughout the seasons, and the garden benefits from a private south-easterly aspect. Further features include an attractive pond, a mature willow tree, and a substantial timber studio/summer house, offering excellent additional space for hobbies, home working, or relaxation.
*Vehicular Parking: Please note that Westmead is located in Harroell (a cul-de-sac) and accessed on foot via a footpath. Harroell has limited street parking but further street parking is available on
the High Street.
