Description

A striking Grade II listed thatched cottage of considerable charm and character, with a good garden and detached home office. With a flexible layout, particularly on the ground floor, it could appeal as a comfortable home, a welcoming weekend retreat or as an investment. On the ground floor, the open plan style layout of the three reception rooms makes it well configured for entertaining and family living, and there is also a kitchen/dining room, and a useful downstairs bedroom overlooking the garden.

On the first floor, the landing/sitting area leads to the two double bedrooms, one en suite, and also leads to the impressive bathroom with freestanding Heritage bath with Victorian style shower unit over.

Outside, the gravelled driveway provides parking with gates to the garden. A paved, sheltered seating area, ideal for al fresco dining, leads up to the garden which is laid to lawn, interspersed with trees and shrubs and with a good degree of privacy. There is a detached home office with light and power, together with a summerhouse and garden shed.
