Hill Brow Cottage is a light, well-proportioned, period house, on the edge of the village, set behind a beautifully kept and mature front garden. It is in immaculate condition and would provide the perfect accommodation for modern family living. On entering Hill Brow Cottage, the entrance hall creates a wonderful first impression aided by the stylish galleried staircase with a handy cupboard beneath. Leading immediately off from the entrance hall is the beamed, characterful sitting room, with an open, working fireplace and thought to be the oldest part of the cottage dating back to 1788. Tucked away in one corner is a cosy study area with an outlook onto the front garden. Adjoining this is the light filled dining room with views out onto the rear garden. The dual aspect kitchen is well equipped with fitted cupboards and double doors leading out onto the garden beyond. The garden room next door provides additional space for eating or as a possible study, as well as useful storage and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. The downstairs cloakroom can also be found here. Leading off from the garden room is the garage which is currently used as a workshop but could potentially be incorporated into part of the house. There is a great feeling of light and space going upstairs owing to the large window over looking the staircase. Hill Brow Cottage has three good sized, well presented double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom having an en-suite shower room. There is also a large family bathroom with a traditional style roll top bath which has delightful views out onto farmland beyond and houses a large airing cupboard. Both the bathrooms have underfloor heating.

Outside

Hill Brow Cottage enjoys a private and secluded garden which provides ample space for outdoor living. The garden has been semi divided by a wooden fence with the far end being more functional housing a garden shed, greenhouse and raised vegetable beds. Nearer to the house the garden is edged with flower beds and has a lovely terraced area with useful electric power points, perfect for al fresco entertaining. A beautiful apple tree under planted with spring bulbs takes pride of place at the front of the house. The gravel driveway provides plenty of parking space, separated from the garden by an attrative Cotswold stone wall.
