Accommodation

This superb property was built in 1991 and is believed to have been designed by the French architect, Michel Boulesteix.

Harwood Cottage enjoys extensive gardens, which extend to half an acre; enviable panoramic views to the rear and direct access to open moorland from the front.

The property has been greatly improved by the current owners, including the installation of a large solar and battery system, which generates far more electricity than the current owners typically use, meaning energy bills are negligable and excess solar energy can be used to heat the hot water. A highly efficient, WiFi controlled air-to-air heating system provides both heating and cooling for year round comfort. The property now boasts a 'B' EPC rating... It was so close to an A; but not quite!

The double glazing and 'Velux' windows have all been replaced within the last 12 months; re-decorated throughout, the well presented accommodation is arranged over three split-levels and offers generous, versatile family living, briefly comprising...

Entrance hallway with stairs up to the top level and down to the middle level, door to the garage and door to the utility.

Upstairs from the hallway is a bright landing with doors off to two double bedrooms and the family bathroom.

Downstairs from the entrance hallway, is the middle level where you will find a guest cloakroom and two further double bedrooms; both with beautifully re-fitted en-suites.

The lower level then has the breakfast kitchen and the lounge/dining room...

The kitchen has integrated appliances including a fridge freezer, dishwasher, four ring electric hob with extractor fan over and eye level double oven/grill.

The large lounge/dining room is fantastic; with sliding doors to the side and to the rear; perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the views.

The rear sliding door leads to an extensive BBQ deck; ideal for entertaining or simply just to sit and enjoy the sound of the birds whilst taking in the views...

Outside, the property is set back behind a gated driveway providing ample parking and access around both sides of the property to the gardens at the rear. The mature gardens are 'L' shaped and offer a great deal of privacy. There is a recently constructed timber shed with adjoined pergoda where you can sit and enjoy the view.

The spacious double garage has an, electric roller door and internal access to the entrance hallway; perfect for when coming home with muddy boots after a walk on the moor!

The solar panels and battery system were installed in 2025, as was the air source heating and at the same time a new consumer unit was also installed.
