Spring Cottage is a pretty detached cottage, quietly tucked away within the Conservation area of this most sought-after village. The house was subject to an extensive program of renovation and enlargement in 2014/15 and then fully redecorated in 2022, complemented by high end bespoke kitchen and bathrooms, the house is both immaculate and beautifully presented. The layout can be seen from the floor plans. There is a very generous reception hall, charming drawing room with an open fire and a stunning kitchen/living/dining room with good views and access to the terrace and garden.

The principal bedroom has a lovely vaulted ceiling and the exposed green oak timbers, together with built-in wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom. Three further bedrooms share the main landing and a family bathroom. The house is complemented by a gorgeous annexe, perfect for guests, comprising a spacious bed/sitting room, mezzanine loft and shower room.

The previous owners derived an income from the annexe of around £25,000 per annum from holiday lets (Airbnb).

This property has 0.3 acres of land.
