3 bedroom cottage for sale

Part Exchange Available! Nestling within mature gardens and a perfect countryside setting, 'Little Cloak Cottage', is an extended stone built 'L' shaped cottage, which has been sympathetically maintained and imaginatively designed to offer excellent family and guest accommodation. The house has been designed to make the most of its unspoiled rural location with panoramic views across the local countryside. It's an ideal purchase for those seeking a quiet retreat - yet it's only minutes from the village amenities and good transport links.

As part of the design of this property, great emphasis has been placed on the creation of easily managed and free flowing space and the main living accommodation has been designed to make best use of the fine open countryside views surrounding the property.

Internally this unique home comprises: Welcoming entrance vestibule with storage units and hallway, with a very useful utility cupboard, housing the washing machine and tumble dryer, and also a second handy storage cupboard. Immediately impressive lounge, which benefits from a large south facing picture window to the front aspect, which floods the room with natural light and offers tremendous views of the surrounding countryside. The feature fireplace with solid fuel stove linked to the central heating system which will help keep energy costs down is the other key focal point of this room. A large, bright kitchen/diner is also located off the hallway and is ideal for more informal dining. The kitchen area has an excellent range of country style base and wall units with the added benefit of an integrated double oven, hob, extractor hood, upright fridge freezer and dishwasher. Picture windows to the rear and sides overlook the magnificent gardens and provides excellent natural light. The dining area has plenty of room for a table and six chairs for entertaining with friends and family. This zone is certain to become the central 'hub' of the home !

There are three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all offering storage facilities and with ample space for additional free standing furniture if required. The master bedroom benefits from a range of walk-in-wardrobes (with dressing area) and its own luxury five piece en-suite bathroom. There is also an open fire in this room, adding to the 'cosy' feel. A family bathroom suite, with an electric shower over the bath, completes the impressive accommodation.

There is also a floored accessible loft above the lounge, bedroom and kitchen offering further development potential. There are also two attic rooms which are accessed by way of a spiral staircase from the west hallway. These rooms could be adapted into further living accommodation (subject to obtaining necessary consents) and would suit those requiring live/work arrangements. One dormer and one velux window offer both natural light and stunning views to the South. This area might also suit a teenager requiring a level of independence.

The property has both lpg and solid fuel central heating and is doubled glazed throughout. There is also hard wired smoke alarms and an intruder alarm system for further peace of mind.

The gardens lie mainly to the front of the property and are of generous size with mature plants and shrubs. There is a sizeable patio area at the rear accessed from the rear hallway. As one would expect, there is ample off road parking for a number of vehicles.

There is also a small paddock to the south of the front garden, which is also available by negotiation, which might suit those with an equestrian/animal interest or perhaps a market gardener.
