Description A four bedroom detached Grade II listed cottage dating back to the early 1600’s. Offering spacious updated accommodation over two floors, packed full of all the character features you would expect from a house of this era, including exposed wall and ceiling beams, brace and latch doors and an inglenook fireplace. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of local history and should not be missed.

From the moment you walk up to this delightful cottage you are drawn to all of its charm with exposed timber frame ‘purlin and queen’ strut structure pretty and gabled roof. This home has been sympathetically updated in recent years to offer a wonderful blend of period features with modern style.

The accommodation has a traditional feel and is laid out over two floors starting with an inviting entrance hall with clay floor tiles that flow through most of the ground floor. The good size kitchen has had a beautiful face lift offering light coloured eye and base level units, a stunning granite work top, built in sink and drainer, plus space for all modern appliances.

Next door is a spacious study with a bay window giving extra space and a view over the garden. Because of its size this room could be a kids play room or even an occasional bedroom.

Stairs take you up to the first floor landing which leads through to all the bedrooms and the loft access. The master bedroom has a real wow factor with exposed beams and views over the garden.

Next to the garage and workshop is an area of level lawn with a hedge boards that falls away to the ‘Pipbrook’ stream. The beautifully presented main gardens wrap right around the house creating many areas to sit and enjoy with a mixture of patios, raised flower beds and mature shrubs.
