Quote GH0600

Peacefully located in a sought-after village, this delightful cottage offers a wealth of character as well as the convenience of a modern house. It has been tastefully updated and refurbished and with field walks and shops all within a short stroll; viewing is recommended. Along with two reception rooms there is a fitted open plan living-dining-kitchen with a large walk-in pantry and a utility room.

Upstairs the principal bedroom has an ensuite and there are a further two double bedrooms.

A key feature is outside and the detached Garden Room, which could be an ideal office for those working from home.

Once inside, it is noticeable how much higher the ceilings are than you might usually find in a cottage; the large and airy reception hall enhances this open feel.

My clients have retained the original brick fireplace and this striking feature has become an ideal display recess. The attractive strip wood floor links the downstairs and leads to doors for each of the downstairs rooms; including a useful storage cupboard. A dog-leg staircase rises to the first floor.

There is a ground floor cloakroom with low level flush WC and wash hand basin.

The sitting room is an ideal size to accommodate the whole family with comfort, and two windows to the front and one to the rear ensure it is open and light. In addition there is double storage closest that is practical and convenient. Another attractive feature, adding character and warmth, is the logburner with exposed backcloth and wood mantle over.

Back to the reception hall and for those working from home, there is a study; or a room that could perhaps be adapted as a children's gaming room, or hobbies room

With modern family life often involving doing several things at once, this home delivers a stunning open plan living dining kitchen that caters to how you live. From eating and cooking to entertaining and homework in one place, to the double width sliding double glazed door that leads seamlessly to the outside patio. It’s easy to picture the communal family scenes around dinner or evening relaxation. The kitchen area is fitted with: A range of base units and ample work surfaces, an inset induction hob, two double ovens and a combi oven/ microwave. There is also a fitted dishwasher, recess for a double width fridge freezer, which my client is willing to leave.

A further door leads into the utility room, which benefits from plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is ample shelving and roll top work surface with inset sink and drainer. The wall mounted boiler provides domestic hot water and heating. There is a door that leads out to the garden

on the first floor

A skylight velux window over the landing adds plenty of light to the upstairs and a carpeted landing gives access to all rooms and a hatch to the attic.

The principal bedroom has a window to the front and full height and full width fitted wardrobe and stripped wooden flooring. There is also an ensuite shower room, with a window.

There are a further two double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with shower over, low level flush WC and a vanity wash hand basin.

Outside

The peace as you step outside can make you wonder if you’re still in Cottenham! This quietude is enhanced by the view of the church and the fact that you are not directly overlooked by neighbours. The outside area connects seamlessly to the indoors via the sliding patio doors and the idea of an outside living area is highlighted by features such as the metal gazebo over a sitting area; the seated breakfast bar near to the BBQs meal prep station; and the wooden walkway that connects to another decking area.

This decking also provides another social zone outside one of the key features of the property: The self contained, detached garden room This is perfect for anyone working from home that wants to be totally independent of the main house, especially if they might have clients visiting as it is directly accessible from your own parking area. Inside there is a main workspace area and a second room which could easily be used as a bedroom, making this also an ideal stand alone living annexe as it also benefits from a shower room

The detached garage is currently divided into a gym and store room and is larger than most garages. Subdivided by a stud partition, it could be turned back into one large garage quite easily. There is also storage in the attic space.

There is gated access to the front garden, which has a variety of shrubs and plants, wheelie bin storage and off road parking

viewing arrangements:

By appointment only. Call or text during or after office hours and quote GH0600

remote viewing tour:

Traditional property viewings are still vital when it comes to finding the right house. However, making these arrangements can be tricky and complicated, juggling work and home life commitments, or simply finding enough time if moving into a new area and traveling some distance.

Booking a Remote Viewing Tour puts you firmly in control. Arrange a day and time that is convenient for you to “look around” and I will arrange for my client to go out and then be at the property at the appointed time to walk you around the house using WhatsApp or Facetime. The Viewing Tour can be as quick or as long as you like, making sure you have a good look round, focussing on the rooms that are important to you. This will hopefully help you decide to arrange a normal viewing at a later date or after office hours.
