A BEAUTIFULLY APPOINTED PERIOD STONE COTTAGE, THOUGHTFULLY EXTENDED AND COMPREHENSIVELY RENOVATED TO AN EXCEPTIONAL STANDARD, ENJOYING FAR-REACHING COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS.
The property has been the subject of an extensive programme of renovation and extension by the current owner, creating beautifully balanced accommodation finished with great attention to detail throughout. The sitting room is a particularly elegant reception space, featuring timber panelling, oak flooring, a wood burning stove and a dual aspect, with a glazed door opening onto the rear terrace and views towards the hill at the front. Double doors lead through to a fitted study with bespoke bookshelves and storage, whilst a pocket door opens into the superb kitchen/dining room. Undoubtedly the heart of the house, this impressive space features limestone flooring, quartz worktops, double AEG ovens, a Siemens five-ring gas hob, Bosch dishwasher and a walk-in pantry, together with electric roof lights and floor-to-ceiling glazed sliding doors opening onto the terrace, complete with electronic blinds. A boot room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
Arranged over the upper floors are three beautifully presented double bedrooms. The first-floor landing enjoys lovely views over the rear garden and surrounding countryside, whilst there is also a useful utility room with storage, sink and space for laundry appliances. Both first floor bedrooms feature stripped and painted floorboards and benefit from en suite bath/shower rooms. Occupying the entirety of the second floor, the principal suite is a wonderful retreat with reclaimed pine floorboards, extensive built-in wardrobes, eaves storage and a large dormer window framing exceptional far-reaching views. The accompanying wet room style shower room is beautifully appointed with marble tiling, fitted storage and dual aspect Velux windows. Throughout the property there are oak doors and window sills, together with new windows, plumbing and electrics.
To the front, the property is approached over a landscaped gravelled driveway providing off-street parking, cleverly combined with attractive planted areas to create an inviting approach. The rear garden has been beautifully designed and landscaped, with a paved terrace extending directly from the kitchen/dining room, providing an ideal space for outside entertaining and al fresco dining. Pleached trees afford a good degree of privacy, whilst raised beds and carefully considered planting provide colour, texture and seasonal interest throughout the year. Exterior lighting has also been thoughtfully installed across the garden.
