The current owners have enhanced this delightful property with the addition of a lovely garden room, re-modelled the living space and created an upstairs bathroom and a ground floor shower room.

Benefitting from oil fired central heating, double glazing and an efficient wood burning stove, the cottage offers beautifully presented accommodation comprising to the ground floor an enclosed entrance porch, entrance hall / utility room, shower room, breakfast kitchen, living room with feature fireplace, useful study/third bedroom, dining room and garden room enjoying lovely views and access to the garden. To the first floor are two double bedrooms and family bathroom.

Outside, vehicular gates lead to extensive driveway parking and detached garage block comprising two separate garages and adjoining stores. Attractive borders flank the driveway with seasonal planting, shrubs and trees. The large rear garden is laid mainly to lawn with a selection of fruit trees including Plum, Apple, Cherry and Pear.
