Tucked away in a peaceful position yet within easy reach of the town centre, this charming detached cottage offers a wonderful combination of character, flexibility and convenience. Despite its quiet setting away from the main road, the property is ideally placed for access to the local artisan bakery, leisure centre, schools and the excellent range of shops, cafés and everyday facilities within the town centre.

The property is beautifully presented and has been well maintained retaining a wealth of character throughout, including exposed timber beams, traditional latch-and-brace doors, Yorkshire sliding sash windows with wooden shutters and feature fireplaces. The accommodation is also particularly flexible, making this an ideal home for those looking for additional space for family, working from home or potential supplementary income.

The kitchen is beautifully fitted with a range of cream Shaker-style units, complemented by solid wood worktops, an inset Belfast sink and integrated appliances. There is a fantastic Rangemaster cooker with a four ring gas hob and extractor hood over, whilst exposed beams and oak flooring add to the character. French doors open directly onto the pretty walled courtyard, creating a lovely connection between the kitchen and outside space.

The dining room is full of character, with exposed beams, a Yorkshire sliding sash window and an attractive exposed brick chimney breast with York stone hearth. A bespoke built-in display cabinet provides useful storage, whilst stone steps lead down into the inviting lounge.

The lounge is a lovely, comfortable reception room with exposed beams, a further character fireplace with York stone hearth and a cast-iron log burner. French doors open onto the south-facing rear garden, making this a particularly pleasant room from which to enjoy the garden throughout the year.

To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a traditional family bathroom. The principal bedroom has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, space for wardrobes and attractive high-level picture windows with bespoke timber shutters, whilst the remaining bedrooms offer useful flexibility for family, guests or home working. The bathroom is fitted with a white three price suite that includes a bath with shower over.

A particular feature of the property is the detached double garage with a versatile studio apartment above, accessed via its own separate entrance. The studio provides a generous open space with vaulted ceiling, Velux windows and excellent eaves storage, together with its own en-suite shower room. This superb additional space could be utilised in a variety of ways, whether as a home office, guest accommodation, teenage suite, creative studio or, subject to any necessary permissions, potential Airbnb/short-term letting accommodation offering an attractive opportunity for additional income.

Externally, the property continues to impress. There is ample private parking to the front, including a generous double-width granite sett driveway, together with a substantial double garage featuring power, lighting and two electric garage doors.

The gardens are a real highlight, with a beautifully landscaped and enclosed south-facing cottage garden, well-stocked borders, a level lawn and patio seating area. To the side is a further generous lawned area with a magnificent mature Willow tree, whilst the pretty walled courtyard adjoining the kitchen provides another secluded outdoor space, ideal for morning coffee or al fresco dining. The combination of the different garden areas provides plenty of space to relax, entertain and enjoy the privacy this property offers.

With its peaceful off-road position, charming character, excellent gardens, ample parking, double garage and highly versatile studio annexe, this is a property that offers far more than initially meets the eye. The combination of being tucked away from the main road whilst remaining so close to the town's amenities makes this a particularly appealing home, and viewing is highly recommended.
