2 bed semi-detached house for sale

The Street, Sturmer CB9

Pear Tree Cottage is the epitome of an English country home, a charming semi-detached cottage that has been lovingly extended and upgraded to create a residence that is as practical for modern family life as it is rich in character. From the moment you step through the door, there is a wonderful sense of warmth, with exposed timbers, cottage windows and a wealth of original features sitting comfortably alongside thoughtful contemporary additions.

The sitting room is a picture of cottage charm, centred around an impressive inglenook-style fireplace inset with a wood-burning stove, an inviting space for gathering on winter evenings. From here, the accommodation unfolds with a study and further reception area, leading through to a striking inner hall with exposed flint and brickwork, vaulted roof light and glazed sections, a truly unexpected and dramatic feature which fills the heart of the home with natural light. To one side, the breakfast room flows into a bright conservatory, framing views over the garden and creating a seamless connection between inside and out. The kitchen is a joy: Fitted with bespoke cabinetry, a butler’s sink and range cooker, finished with natural wood worktops that bring an authentic country feel. A utility and cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, two bedrooms enjoy the intimacy and character of sloping ceilings and exposed beams, while the bathroom, finished with natural stone, roll-top bath and separate shower, strikes a perfect balance between luxury and period charm.

Outside

To the rear lies a wonderfully private and enclosed space, landscaped with stone terraces for al fresco dining, winding paths, colourful borders and a neat lawn framed by mature planting. It is a garden made for summer entertaining as much as quiet contemplation. Tucked away to one side is a delightful garden studio or summerhouse, offering a flexible retreat for work or relaxation. The property further benefits from off-road parking for two cars and, most unusually for a cottage of this nature, a detached double garage — providing excellent storage and practicality without detracting from the idyllic setting
