Description

Lavender Cottage is a detached stone house sitting centrally within this highly sought after village. The property has been extended and beautifully modernised to a very high standard and, with a self-contained annexe, offers versatile accommodation to suit a wide range of buyers.

On entering Lavender Cottage, you are greeted by a bright and spacious entrance hall with roof light which in turn leads through to a rear hall. No doubt the heart of the home is the impressive bespoke kitchen/dining room which has a central island, integrated appliances and a log burning stove. The bay window overlooks the front garden with window seating making this a wonderful entertaining space. The rear hall leads into a cosy sitting room and through to the conservatory/dining room with double doors to the rear garden. There is a large fully fitted utility/boot room to the rear, with a door to the garden and an adjacent cloakroom.

To the other side of the main entrance hall is a self-contained annexe with a snug room, double bedroom with kitchen area and an en suite shower room. This has been designed to provide additional accommodation, and gives the option for income as a holiday let, as it has its own separate entrance.

Upstairs there are three good sized double bedrooms all with plenty of storage and a luxury family bathroom with roll top bath and separate shower. An independent home office sits to one corner of the garden and offers a stunning space to work from home with power, insulation and heating.

Lavender Cottage is approached over a block paved driveway through gates into a large gravelled parking area and enclosed garden. The south facing rear garden has a terrace and is mostly laid to lawn, with access to both sides of the property from the front. The home office is situated to one side of the garden.
