Description
Drove Cottage is a well-presented three-bedroom semi-detached home, pleasantly positioned along a quiet country lane and offered to the market with no onward chain.
The accommodation is arranged around a welcoming entrance hall, from which all principal reception rooms are accessed. To one side lies a stylish open-plan kitchen/sitting room, ideal for modern living and entertaining, with a door opening directly onto the rear garden. The kitchen is well equipped with a range of fitted wall and base units, integrated appliances and a breakfast bar.
A second reception room offers excellent flexibility, suitable for use as a formal dining room or an additional sitting room, and benefits from double doors opening out to the garden, creating a seamless indoor/outdoor connection. A cloakroom with utility space completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, there are three generous double bedrooms, two of which feature built-in wardrobes, all served by a well-appointed family bathroom.
Drove Cottage represents an ideal opportunity for those seeking a comfortable home in a peaceful rural setting, with versatile living space and excellent day-to-day practicality.
The property further benefits from having lapsed approved planning permission (N/08/01191/ful) for a single storey extension to both the front and rear of the property.

The rear cottage style garden offers complete privacy and is a lovely tranquil space. It is mainly laid to lawn with an array of specimen shrub and flower borders giving interest throughout the seasons. A paved area which can be access from both the kitchen and dining room, provides an ideal seating area for enjoying the sunshine or for alfresco dining. A timber shed provides outside storage.
