Description
Rich in charm and character, this delightful cottage has remained in the same family for around 90 years and now presents a wonderful opportunity for updating and enhancement. The accommodation comprises two reception rooms, a kitchen/dining room, utility and cloakroom, together with three bedrooms, a study or nursery and a family bathroom. Positioned in the heart of the village, the property enjoys an attractive setting with views across the park and surrounding area. It also benefits from direct gated access from the garden to a pathway leading over the stream and into the park beyond.
The front door opens into a bright dual aspect reception room, currently used as a dining room, with stairs rising to the first floor. The sitting room also enjoys a dual aspect and features an open fireplace, creating a cosy focal point. A few steps lead down to the kitchen/dining room, a light filled space fitted with a range of wall and base units, space for appliances and an oil fired Rayburn. Patio doors open from the dining area onto the terrace and garden beyond. The utility room provides additional storage along with space and plumbing for a washing machine, and there is also a cloakroom with WC.
Upstairs, there is a single bedroom or dressing room which connects to a double bedroom with built in wardrobes. A further bedroom overlooks the rear, while the family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower over, wash basin and WC. The airing cupboard houses the hot water cylinder, linked to the Rayburn. A further double bedroom includes a built in cupboard.
The rear of the property is accessed from both the kitchen and utility room, leading onto a raised paved terrace, perfect for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun along with the pleasant outlook. Steps lead down to a useful garden store/workshop, which also houses the oil tank. A pathway, owned by Steppings, over which two other properties have a right of way on foot, continues to a private garden area with planted beds and a greenhouse. From here, a gate provides access to a path leading down towards the stream.
