A beautifully presented double-fronted cottage dating back to the late 19th century, thoughtfully extended and comprehensively refurbished to create a distinctive period family home. The property successfully combines original character features with high-quality contemporary finishes, offering versatile and well-proportioned accommodation throughout.

The ground floor is entered into a welcoming sitting room, which enjoys a delightful double aspect. To the front are traditional sash-style windows, while to the side a set of feature arched windows allows additional natural light to flood the room. A brick-built fireplace with wood-burning stove forms an attractive focal point, adding warmth and character. Leading off the sitting room is a useful study, positioned to the side aspect and ideal for home working or many other uses.

Also accessed from the sitting room is a ground floor cloakroom incorporating a generous storage cupboard, along with the staircase rising to the first floor. A further doorway leads through to the impressive kitchen/dining room, which is a true highlight of the home.

A roof lantern provides excellent natural light, while there is ample space for a large dining table and chairs, making it ideal for family living and entertaining. Double doors provide side access, and an open connection leads seamlessly into the family room.
