A substantial period home dating back to 1865 having been extended to the side to create a versatile layout and the possibility of utilising the extension as a two bed annex. There is a generous garden to the rear, courtyard area providing off road parking and leading to a range of useful outbuildings.
General - This substantial cottage offers some lovely period and original features as well as a versatile layout thanks to a well thought out extension to the side. A spacious entrance hall provides access to the utility room, cloakroom, snug and breakfast kitchen. Off the well equipped kitchen is a pleasant garden room and the main sitting room where a multi-fuel burner provides an impressive focus. An opening leads on to formal dining room where a spiral stair case descends to the converted cellar which the current vendor uses as a study. Off the first landing is the family bathroom and three of the five bedrooms. The master bedroom is accessed via a dressing room complete with built in wardrobes. Off the second landing which is accessed via stairs from the entrance hall, are two further bedrooms and a second family bathroom.
General Cont. - The property would lend itself to those who need an annex due to its dual staircases and a sizeable utility room which could become the annex kitchen. If converted the annex would provide two bedrooms, a bathroom, kitchen and lounge diner. Outside there is off road parking to the rear in a courtyard area which provides a sitting area and leads to a single garage and particularly large workshop / triple garage with adjoining W.C. To the rear of the outbuildings is the generously sized, elevated garden which is mainly laid to lawn with pretty planted borders.
