Full Description
This Grade II listed, white painted, semi-detached cottage sits back from the road hidden behind a wooden gate and a magnificent magnolia tree with the benefit of a large drive that provides ample parking and leads to the external porch which can be accessed from the front and rear. The cottage has been partially renovated but requires further work to restore it to its full potential. A central dining hallway which has characterful exposed wood features and a useful understairs cupboard leads to the kitchen at the rear with a recess to house a range cooker with wooden lintel above, but which requires the installation of cupboards, worktops and appliances. A new Amtico flooring has been laid and spotlights have been installed into the ceiling. A downstairs WC with white suite is off this room. A cosy front sitting room has a focal, fully working, brick fireplace and hearth, character features and an encased staircase leading to the first floor.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, each with fitted cupboards and double aspect views and a family bathroom nestled between them, providing white shower cubicle, bath, basin and WC, heated towel rail and a built-in vanity cupboard. The cottage has metal framed, leaded light, secondary glazed windows throughout and electric heaters.
Outside the garden has been mostly laid to lawn with large flower beds to the sides but also has some rather beautiful old reminders of a past well and stone fishpond, together with a timber arbour further down the garden. A paved patio provides a small area for seating and there is a useful outside tap. A wooden shed and a brick garage offer further storage.
A viewing of this really lovely cottage is highly recommended for anyone looking to create their own bespoke home and continue its restoration and the land that the cottage sits in offers the potential for extension subject to planning permission.
