This delightful 400-year-old cottage is rich in character, featuring honeyed beams, original stone walls and a striking inglenook fireplace. The current owner has carried out extensive modernisation, including new plumbing, electrics, roof and insulation. The kitchen/breakfast room blends period charm with contemporary comfort, offering pale cabinetry, marble worksurfaces, integrated appliances, an island with breakfast bar, underfloor heating and a wood-burning stove set within the second inglenook. A long hallway with exposed stone leads to a smart cloakroom, while the sitting room features exposed timbers and a stable door to the garden.
Upstairs, three inviting bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and beautifully restored beams offer character in abundance. Two newly fitted bathrooms — including a luxurious family bathroom and an en-suite — add a touch of everyday indulgence.
Outside, a private footpath leads to the gated, south-facing garden. With its level lawn, sunny terrace, flower beds, lavender hedge and climbing passion flower, it’s a peaceful spot for morning coffee, summer lunches or relaxed evenings with friends.
For added convenience, the current owners make use of unrestricted on-road parking and a nearby car park, ensuring easy and stress-free parking for vehicles.
