Description
Moor Oak Cottage is a detached character cottage enjoying a rural location on the edge of the popular village of Dymock.
The original cottage dates back to circa 1640 and has been extended over the years including the conversion of the attached stone barn to create a spacious and flexible family home. The property is well presented throughout, benefitting from oil central heating and double glazing and retains many notable character features including a wealth of exposed beams and stone walls with arrow slit windows. The accommodation comprises to the ground floor an entrance hall, dining room with archway to the re-fitted kitchen, inner hallway with door to the rear garden, utility room and sitting room with study area off. The attached barn conversion has created two further reception rooms to the ground floor with an attractive living room with vaulted ceiling and picture window to the front of the property and a snug, currently used as a bedroom. In addition there is a useful cloak room and conservatory.
To the first floor a split landing leads to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. A galleried landing leads through an exposed beam archway with exposed brick walls into the converted barn and to the master bedroom.
Outside the property is approached via a tree lined gravel driveway, providing parking for several vehicles. Outbuildings include a large garage, useful stable block, brick-built summer house and a green house.
Private landscaped gardens of approximately 0.50 acre wrap around the cottage, laid to lawn with mature flower beds, terraces, an enclosed vegetable garden and area of orchard.
The agent recommends an early inspection to appreciate this interesting property and its rural setting.
