About this property
This beautiful four bedroom period cottage, as featured in Period Living magazine in June 2025, is located on a quiet lane on the edge of a sought-after village, and has been carefully extended and renovated by the current owners. The property is immaculately presented with a high standard of interior décor, and combines high ceilings and modern convenience with period charm and features.
The cottage opens up to a vaulted entrance hall, leading to a boot room area with plenty of storage and a downstairs cloakroom. The heart of the house is a 27 ft kitchen dining room with double doors out to the garden, which features painted shaker-style cabinetry with granite worktops and integrated appliances. This is open to a dining area, which has double doors leading to a family room with views out to the front garden that is flooded with light from two rooflights. There is also a useful utility room with an external door and storage. The cosy sitting room has an open fireplace and double doors out to the garden terrace.
On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes, that are served by a family bathroom with tongue and groove panelling and a separate fitted shower. There is also a study, perfect for home working.
On the second floor, the owners have created a luxurious principal bedroom suite that has views across the rear garden, walk in storage and a beautiful en suite shower room.
Outside, the front of the property has a good sized gravel driveway with ample parking and side access. The rear garden is a peaceful oasis with a paved terrace, which is surrounded by pretty planting and plenty of space for seating. The rest of the garden is mostly lawned with mature trees and hedges. There are several further areas of seating, a vegetable plot with raised beds, a children’s play area and a garden shed. A detached garden studio provides further accommodation
