Welcome to this exquisite 17th Century Grade II Listed cottage clad in galleted Bargate stone. It is reputedly one of the oldest houses in the village and was divided into two cottages some time ago but restored to a substantial single house in 2004. This fantastic home benefits from a contemporary feel, whilst retaining many original features and the character and charm of a period cottage.

Some of the outstanding features include: large reception hall with oak flooring; open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room with lovely views over the rear garden; Harvey Jones cream shaker style solid units and attractive grey granite worktops in the kitchen. A fabulous study with wood burning stove, elegant dining room and useful study complete the ground floor. Flexible first floor bedroom accommodation is accessed via two staircases providing a beautiful principle bedroom with adjacent dressing room and bathroom, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

Outside

The property is approached through a wooden gate, up a path through the pretty front garden. The beautiful rear garden is a delightful feature and the central lawn area is bordered by a well-stocked flower bed on one side and an attractive pergola covered gravel walkway on the other. There are three patio/barbeque areas, one of which is at the end of the garden and overlooks the farmland beyond. This is a very stylish, contemporary space and is perfect for entertaining and has built in seating areas and a fire pit.

The beautifully decorated summer house is fitted with mains electricity.
