The Olde Bush is a traditional brick and flint house which blends traditional character and charm with modern fittings and living set within a village location with a large landscaped garden.

The Property

The Olde Bush was formerly a farmhouse, then a pub and is now a wonderful home which blends traditional character and charm with modern fittings and living. The heart of the cottage is the L shaped kitchen dining room. The beautifully designed bespoke, hand painted kitchen comprises traditional shaker style units with oak counter tops, integrated appliances and two ceramic sinks. The informal dining area includes a built in banquette seating with storage and feature pendant lighting above. The dual aspect sitting room is a warm and cosy room with French doors leading to the garden. A traditional inglenook fireplace features a flagstone hearth, bressummer beam, bread oven, exposed brickwork and a wood burner. The study is ideal for those who work from home, but could be arranged as a craft room or additional bedroom.

The main bedroom is a nice sized room overlooking the rear garden, benefitting from a range of built in wardrobes and an ensuite shower room, featuring a large shower with rain shower head and underfloor heating. The second and third bedrooms are both double bedrooms with built in storage and are served by the family shower room.

The landscaped front garden is bound by ornamental wrought iron fencing; well stocked flower beds and a sandstone paved pathway lead to the front door. The rear garden is a particular feature enjoying a sunny aspect. A generous patio and pergola adjoin the cottage. The remainder of the thoughtfully designed garden comprises lawn with well stocked, established, colourful borders, feature shrubs and trees, a weeping birch tree and a wildlife pond. There is a productive vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse.
