The Property

Believed to date back to the 1750's, The Cottage has been lovingly restored and extended to provide a versatile family home.

The property is entered through the stable front door and into the dining room, where the original range fire sits in a large open brick fireplace. The rooms in the original cottage have a wealth of period features and exposed timbers. The dining room, kitchen and living room have flagstone flooring with underfloor heating, whereas the study has a unique brick floor. A stable door from the dining room leads to the path running around the side of the property. From this room there are extensive views over Gloucestershire towards Bredon Hill. The fitted bespoke kitchen leads off the dining room and has fitted units under a granite worksurface with space for a range cooker.

Following through from the dining room into the living room, the original front door is located here and leads back to the garden. In this room, there is a large open fireplace with a woodburner. A step down brings you into the study area, which has exposed brickwork and a skylight. A door from the living room leads into the utility room, where there is a Belfast sink, space for a fridge / freezer and washing machine, ample storage cupboards. Off the utility room is the cloakroom and a door leads to the back courtyard garden. The feature wooden staircase rises from the living room to the first floor, where there are original wooden floor boards.

The master bedroom has exposed beams and windows to two aspects giving views over the Malvern Hills and Bredon Hill. There is an abundance of storage in this room with under eaves storage and two built-in wardrobes. On this floor, there is an additional double bedroom with exposed stonework and beams and under eaves storage space. The family bathroom comprises of a white suite with basin, WC, free standing bath and shower.

Double doors, from the dining room, lead into the new extension which includes a large conservatory with separate double doors leading the garden and the path at the side of the cottage, from which stunning views can be enjoyed. A step down leads to the further bedrooms, which both have oak flooring. The first double bedroom has an en-suite shower room. A further door from bedroom three leads to bedroom four, where there is a door leading into the garden. This could make an ideal annexe or Bed and Breakfast accommodation.
