A former stables and coach house, Rectory Cottage is superbly converted to provide this characterful two-bedroom accommodation set within grounds of a listed building and adjacent to the church.
The property enjoys a wonderfully peaceful setting within grounds extending to approximately 0.78 acres (STS), approached via a long gravel driveway and surrounded by generous front and rear gardens, the latter benefitting from a desirable southerly aspect.
The thoughtfully designed accommodation briefly comprises an entrance porch, cloaks/WC, a spacious sitting room with bi-fold doors opening onto the garden, a modern kitchen/diner, and two double bedrooms, each complemented by stylish en suite facilities.
Positioned within a sought-after village location and enjoying an idyllic backdrop, this delightful home offers both charm and contemporary comfort, and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
The property has been converted in recent years from a former stables and coach house in accordance with modern building regulations, resulting in a well-insulated and thermally efficient home. It has been finished to a high standard throughout, with quality kitchen and bathroom fittings. Heating is provided by modern, efficient electric radiators, alongside a hot water cylinder. There is also a nearby gas connection point which could be utilised if desired.
Externally, the property benefits from a modern sewage treatment plant, discreetly positioned within the garden. Planning permission is also in place for a substantial outbuilding to the front of the cottage, offering further potential. Approximate boundaries are indicated on the accompanying plans and remain subject to survey, with final fencing arrangements to be agreed at the point of sale.
