The Property

Originally two separate cottages, Eggars Cottage was converted and extended by the current owners to create a large family home 30 years ago. Period features have been retained giving the house character and interest and the extension adds fabulous space and flexibility for modern family living.

The entrance hall creates an immediate warm welcome and leads to the dining room which, together with the double doors to the conservatory and door to the sitting room with open fireplace, make an ideal entertaining area throughout the year. The kitchen/breakfast room has a 4 door gas aga and good range of fitted cupboards . At the rear of the house the triple aspect family room is light and spacious and there is also a large well-equipped utility room. An office is accessed through the conservatory providing a useful and quiet workspace. Upstairs a spacious landing with exposed beams reveals the fabric and character of the original building and period fireplaces in three of the five double bedrooms enhance the period charm. Five good double bedrooms and three generous bathrooms, one being ensuite, provide versatile family and guest accommodation.

Eggars Cottage has been a well maintained and much loved family home stylishly presented and ready for any new owner to move into.
