Oozing charm and period features throughout, this beautiful two bedroom cottage is rural living at it finest, and is complemented by the incredible gardens that accompany the property. With offroad parking and a pleasant location within the desirable village of Colby, this is a 'must-see' home.
Privately positioned and encased by a delightful array of established flower beds and shrubbery, this property is one of those chocolate box cottages that immediately catches your eye if you are looking for a charming rural home. Sympathetically renovated by the current owner upon occupation, Elm Cottage displays a number of refurbished features including beams, flagged flooring and beautiful inglenook fireplace. The accommodation briefly comprises a useful entrance porch, living room with patio doors and multifuel stove, kitchen/diner with generous understairs pantry, rear hallway and bathroom. To the first floor there are two bedrooms, both enjoying an attractive open outlook.
Externally, Elm Cottage has the most delightful gardens with paths that meander through the established beds that house a host of colourful blooms, pond and flagged patios. The property that is on offer here is an endearing home, one which you cannot help but adore as you enjoy all it has to offer.
Please note - the neighbouring plot of land is available by separate negotiation. Planning has previously been granted, however this has now lapsed.
