2 bed cottage for sale

West Street, Mayfield TN20

Ancient cottage is situated in the heart of Mayfield, within a stones throw from the historic high street.

The property is a charming, Grade II listed, attached cottage, benefitting from all the character one would associate with the era, such as beamed ceilings, timber doors, a large inglenook fireplace, and several nooks and crannys!

One enters into the sitting/dining room, arranged as two areas, with the dining area to one end, and the sitting room focussed around the inglenook fireplace. A door leads into the kitchen, at the rear of the property, which in turn, opens on to the rear garden.

The kitchen comprises an array of cupboards and drawers, with space for various appliances, and a fitted sink, cooker and hob, wooden worktops, and tiled shelves and brick flooring. The wall at one end opens to reveal a large larder/store room with the boiler, and a further door provides access to the WC, complete with a window to rear and basin.

A little door from the kitchen, and another door from the sitting room lead onto the stairwell, with angled wooden tread stairs lead up and around to the first floor.

The first floor provides two rooms, both currently used as bedrooms leading from one to another, with a bathroom beyond, both with windows to front.

The bathroom comprises a rolltop bath with a shower over and shower curtain, plus a basin.

Outside, to the front is a small flowerbed, with a beautiful camelia shrub, whilst at the rear, there is a predominantly walled garden, with an area of lawn, brick patio and path, a brick well, and flower bed borders, and a gate to the neighbour’s garden.
