The current owners have transformed the property during their time here, creating a home that feels both characterful and practical for modern family life. Stepping inside, a welcoming hallway leads through to the heart of the home a wonderful open-plan kitchen and dining space. An impressive double-sided log-burning stove creates a natural focal point, while original windows and a stable-style door add to the cottage atmosphere.
The kitchen is well equipped with a breakfast bar incorporating a gas hob, integrated fridge freezers and a selection of NEFF appliances. There is also plumbing for dishwasher and washing machine, with plenty of workspace and storage for everyday family life.
Slate steps lead down into the living room, where bi-folding doors open directly onto the garden and frame the beautiful outlook across the neighbouring fields. A second log-burning stove makes this a particularly inviting room throughout the colder months, while the connection with the garden creates a completely different feel during summer.
A further reception room adds excellent flexibility to the ground floor. It could work equally well as an additional bedroom, snug, playroom or separate sitting room. A convenient WC and useful under-stairs storage complete the ground-floor accommodation. Traditional-style radiators have also been chosen to complement the character of the cottage.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double with space for large bed and wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room, complete with underfloor heating and a walk-in shower. The remaining bedrooms offer comfortable and adaptable accommodation, with attractive views and plenty of natural light.

There is plenty of space for children to play, entertaining during the warmer months or for keen gardeners to introduce vegetable beds, an orchard or further planting.
Beyond the garden are open fields, providing a particularly appealing backdrop and giving the property a wonderful semi-rural feel.
The property also offers an excellent amount of off-road parking, with space for approximately four to five vehicles and the added benefit of EV charging. A substantial detached garage provides valuable additional space.
