Property DESCRIPTIONThis charming cottage is situated in a rural location, with many country walks in the surrounding area. The cottage backs on to gorgeous countryside and benefits from great views of fields and orchards from bedroom windows. A short way up the road into Marden you will also find great pubs with lovely beer gardens and other local delights in this idyllic hamlet.
Live the rural lifestyle without worrying about commuting as the local train station is only approximately five minute drive away. This cottage also benefits from a modern home office/studio in the garden, ideal for home workers or those that need an outbuilding for hobbies or crafts. As well as other garden storage units for to house garden tools.
Walking through the front door you have enough space to kick off your shoes and hang your coat before entering the lounge with a beautiful inglenook and log burner. The lounge then leads through to a separate dining room which could also be used as a second sitting room, perfect for a play room for those with children.
The large farmhouse style kitchen is also large enough to accommodate a table and chairs for dining should you wish to use the second reception room for something other than a dining room. Leading off from the kitchen there is a good sized utility area with more storage and a downstairs shower room, ideal for washing the dogs off after those country walks!
Upstairs you will find the main bedroom with chimney running through the centre of the wall, making a striking feature. Bedroom three has a skylight as well as traditional window overlooking countryside views, to maximise natural lighting and built in storage and airing cupboards. Bedroom two has a vaulted ceiling ideal for those wanting something a little different and looks over the garden and orchard at the rear of the property.
