Originally serving as the gardener’s cottage to the nearby Wasperton House estate, Gardener’s Cottage is an attractive and versatile detached home extending to approximately 2,437 sq. Ft including substantial outbuildings. Rich in character and retaining a number of its original horticultural features that reflect its heritage, the property successfully combines period charm with modern practicality. Generous living accommodation is complemented by excellent ancillary space, offering exceptional flexibility for home working, hobbies, storage, or potential future adaptation, subject to the necessary consents.

Ground Floor

The ground floor has been thoughtfully designed around modern open-plan living, creating a wonderful sense of space and connection between the principal reception areas. At its heart is the impressive kitchen, dining, and family room extending over 43 feet in length, providing an exceptional environment for both everyday family life and entertaining.

The beautifully appointed country-style kitchen perfectly balances character and practicality, featuring both a traditional Aga and a separate electric cooker. A breakfast bar provides an informal gathering space, while there is ample room for an American-style fridge freezer. Combining timeless cottage charm with the conveniences expected of a modern family home, the space also comfortably accommodates both dining and relaxed seating areas, centred around an antique Victorian cooking range that creates a striking focal point and enhances the room’s warm and inviting atmosphere

The separate sitting room is a beautifully proportioned reception space centred around a contemporary wood-burning stove with bi-fold doors connecting it to the conservatory, allowing the spaces to be opened up into one large entertaining area when hosting family and friends, or closed to provide a separate reception room when desired.

The conservatory itself is flooded with natural light and acts as a superb extension of the living accommodation, with glazing framing views of the garden and drawing sunlight deep into the adjoining reception spaces.

The open layout and abundance of glazing throughout the ground floor combine to create a bright, sociable, and highly versatile living environment perfectly suited to contemporary family living.

A guest cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

A particular feature of Gardeners Cottage is the substantial detached barn extending to approximately 759 sq. Ft. Featuring extensive storage areas together with a large, dedicated office, creating an exceptional opportunity for those working from home, pursuing hobbies/gym, or seeking further ancillary accommodation potential.

The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped, with the main garden predominantly laid to lawn and framed by mature trees, established borders, and colourful planting that provide privacy and year-round interest. Reflecting the property's heritage as the original gardener’s cottage to Wasperton House, the garden also boasts a number of established fruit trees, including pear, apple, nectarine, fig, and almond, creating a productive and characterful setting.

A gravelled seating area positioned directly off the principal living spaces provides the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining guests and to the rear of the garden, a decked terrace enjoys a more secluded position with an established grapevine gracefully encircling the al fresco dining and barbecue terrace, creating a delightful focal point for outdoor living and summer gatherings.
