£765,000

A quintessential Grade II listed period home, enviably positioned in an idyllic setting overlooking the village green, pond and church. Dating back to the 16th century, this charming cottage is constructed of natural stone with rendered elevations beneath a traditional clay peg tiled roof, and retains a wealth of character features including exposed beams, timbers and striking fireplaces. Despite its peaceful setting, the property is conveniently located within walking distance of village amenities and less than a mile from the mainline railway station. The beautifully presented accommodation is rich in character, with a series of beamed reception rooms that perfectly reflect the cottage’s heritage. The principal sitting room is particularly impressive, centred around an inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting focal point. A generous kitchen/dining room is fitted with an attractive range of Shaker-style units, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. There is also a separate dining room and further reception room, currently arranged as a music room, offers excellent versatility. To the first floor, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned double bedrooms, two of which feature vaulted ceilings enhancing the sense of space and charm. The principal bedroom benefits from a modern en-suite shower room and built-in wardrobes, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a stylish family
bathroom. Outside, the rear garden enjoys a high degree of privacy and is enclosed by traditional Wychert walls, creating a wonderfully secluded setting. A paved terrace extends across the rear of the cottage, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, with the remainder laid to lawn and complemented by mature shrubs and well-stocked borders. To the side, an attached garage/workshop is accompanied by a private driveway and additional parking.
A charming courtyard garden to the front further enhances the setting.
