A beautifully renovated, double-fronted Grade II Listed thatched cottage offering spacious, light-filled accommodation over two floors. Rich in period charm, the property features three generous bedrooms and sits in a peaceful rural setting backing onto open countryside.
The Dwelling
Formerly two separate dwellings, this charming double-fronted Grade II Listed thatched cottage offers light-filled and spacious accommodation arranged over two floors, brimming with period features throughout. Thoughtfully renovated by the current owner, the property boasts generous ground floor reception rooms and three well-proportioned bedrooms on the first floor, all set within a delightful location backing onto neighbouring countryside.
Accommodation
Upon entering through the front porch, you are welcomed into a generously proportioned dining room, which flows seamlessly into the kitchen at the rear of the property. Well-suited for modern living, the kitchen provides ample space for appliances and culinary preparation. Off the kitchen, a rear boot room leads to a convenient cloakroom/utility room, also accommodating additional white goods.
The ground floor has a natural circular flow, with the living room accessible from both the kitchen and dining room. This inviting space is centred around a feature fireplace and benefits from dual-aspect windows, allowing for plenty of natural light.
The first floor is arranged over a split-level landing. To the left lies the principal bedroom and the family bathroom. To the opposite side, two further bedrooms can be found, with the second bedroom featuring a generous built-in wardrobe.
Garden
The garden features a paved patio area directly adjacent to the house, complemented by terraced stone wall flower beds with a central stone step and pathways weaving through the landscaped grounds. At the top of the terrace, a level lawn provides an open space, with a decked area beneath pergola. To the opposite side of the garden, a summer house and a stone-built shed add further appeal and functionality. The garden is enclosed by mature hedging, offering privacy and includes a rear pedestrian gate providing direct access to a neighbouring footpath.
