Hingham

Green Cottage is a magnificent four-bedroom detached family residence, gracefully situated on the outskirts of Hingham. Believed to be dating back to the late 18th century, this wonderful property has been meticulously stripped back to reveal its historic charm and then sympathetically restored and expanded to an exceptional standard. The current owners have nearly doubled the accommodation, showcasing an exquisite attention to detail.

This enchanting cottage boasts an array of standout features that seamlessly blend with its original character. These include stunning herringbone brickwork, engineered oak flooring, reclaimed solid latch doors, and a captivating two-way fireplace with an inset beam above a cosy wood-burning stove. The light-filled bespoke kitchen flows effortlessly into a spacious family room, with bi-folding doors that open onto a sun-drenched patio, making this home a true gem.

Among the numerous desirable aspects of Green Cottage is the expansive principal bedroom, complete with a luxurious four-piece en-suite and a generous dressing room, which could also serve as a nursery or study. Additionally, there are three more double bedrooms and a stylish bathroom featuring a jacuzzi bath, complemented by a convenient ground-floor shower room off the utility area.

The property exudes grandeur from the moment you arrive, with secure electric double gates leading to a large gravel driveway and a detached brick and 'Suffolk clad' garage block. This double garage boasts electric roller doors and an internal door to an additional side section measuring 18'10" x 9'9", perfect for a potential home office or hobby space, and is currently used as a gym. Gates on both sides of the property lead to a beautifully landscaped, southerly facing rear garden. This sunny oasis features well-maintained lawns, an array of shrubs and flowers along sleeper-edged borders, and a stylish tiled patio ideal for family gatherings, entertaining, or relaxation.

Additional amenities include a useful timber outbuilding and wood store, and at the end of the garden, a gate opens into a secret garden and Barbeque courtyard. This hidden retreat houses an insulated outbuilding currently used as a home cinema, providing an enviable and private escape.
