SITUATION The rural of Llantrithyd comprises an attractive combination of cottages, period houses and individually designed, modern properties. The majority of homes are positioned near the village Church, with other properties being scattered along several country lanes. The "Village" enjoys convenient access to the A48 trunk road at , which includes public houses / restaurants and a village shop. Also nearby at is an out-of-town shopping centre including Marks and Spencer, Tesco and other national retail outlets. The Vale of Glamorgan offers a good range of leisure and country pursuits. The Town of Cowbridge includes schools of good reputation, a range of quality shops including Waitrose, public library, health centre, leisure centre and various sporting clubs.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY With a surrounding garden plot, Doprey Cottage has been thoughtfully extended and modernised by the current owners to create the generous family property it has now become. From its covered porch, doors open into a cloakroom and a utility room/cloaks cupboard whilst an additional door leads into the kitchen. The comprehensively fitted kitchen features a quarry tiled floor extending through an open arch into a generous dining room with wood burning stove. This has double doors leading to a south facing paved patio whilst a second door leads to an inner lobby with staircase to a first floor lounge / bedroom. Off this lobby a further door opens to a covered dining area open to two sides and positioned to the south western corner of the property. A family lounge is also accessed from the dining room and enjoys the same southerly aspect; a further set of double doors lead to the south facing frontage. This large multi-purpose room includes a Minster-style stone fire surround with wood burner and solid wood flooring extending into a study/play room. A connecting door opens into a hallway, off which there are two ground floor bedrooms (potential to subdivide to revert to three). There is, in addition, a superb ground floor bathroom with contemporary Villeroy & Boch bath and twin hand basins, a fully tiled wet room and steam room with mosaic tiled, arching ceiling and solid wood, curving doors to a storage cupboard housing hot water cylinder.

To the first floor are three additional bedrooms, one of these with en-suite shower room and the principal bedroom having been planned to be used as a living room with woodburner and a floor to ceiling "glass wall" enjoying a westerly aspect with doors opening to a decked balcony with sweeping views over own gardens.

GARDENS AND GROUNDS From its lane frontage, double wrought iron gates lead onto a flint chipped parking area with ample parking for 3 cars. The garage, understood to have been created from the remaining walls of the original 'Doprey Cottage', is a large garage/work space accessed from twin up and over doors and housing a free-standing oil central heating boiler. There is ample space for a workshop / storage area, there being open wood stores to the front corner. Doprey Cottage itself is centrally located within this plot. Fronting the property is a broad paved patio with ample space and opportunity for al fresco dining. This paving continues, encircling a former outdoor swimming pool, now predominantly decked over but with one section being utilised to create a "sunken" hot tub. Additional lawn to the eastern side of Doprey Cottage, bordering the lane to St Hilary, has flower and shrub borders whilst, to the western side of the plot, is a gently sloping, triangular shape paddock. The gardens and grounds are, in total, about 0.83 acres.

TENURE AND SERVICES Freehold. Mains electric and water connect to the property. Oil fired central heating. Boiler located in garage; double skinned, 3,500 litre oil tank to the rear of garage
