The Property
Accommodation
Inside
Ground Floor
The cottage is approached from the lane to the front door with a tiled canopy above. The door opens into a versatile reception room - currently the music room - but would make a great dining room. A deep window sill and leaded light window overlooks the lane. There are exposed painted ceiling beams and the fireplace has a timber surround and a wood burner. For practical reasons, the floor is laid to tiles. Stairs rise to the first floor and latch doors open to the kitchen and to the sitting room. The sitting room has two leaded light windows, one with a seat beneath that look out over the lane. It too has exposed beams and a stone fireplace with a beam and wood burner. A latch door opens to a further reception room that is currently used as a dining room, however, it could be used as a study or work from home space - the cottage benefits from super fast broadband.
The long kitchen is fitted with a range of units consisting of floor cupboards, separate drawer unit and eye level cupboards with open ended display shelves. There is a good amount of work surfaces with a tiled splash back and a ceramic one and half bowl sink and drainer with a swan neck mixer tap. There is an electric cooker, under counter fridge and washing machine. A part glazed door opens to the conservatory, where the oil fired boiler is located. Double doors open to the courtyard.
First Floor
Stairs rise to the landing with access to the bedrooms, bathroom and the airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. The bathroom is fitted with a WC, pedestal wash hand basin and bath with an electric shower above. There are two double bedrooms, both with leaded light windows overlooking the lane, vaulted ceilings with exposed timbers and built in wardrobes. In addition, there is a generously sized single bedroom with built in storage cupboard.
