The Property
Brooms Lea Cottage is a beautiful stone-built rural home, recently renovated to a high standard to create a luxury family home with flexible space to suit a variety of buyers and lifestyles.
An interesting corner porch provides an excellent entrance into a light, open reception room with a variety of uses from family room to play room or study. Off to the left is a beautiful, sunny sitting room where the vaulted ceiling, bay window, glazed French doors out onto the patio and glazed double doors into the kitchen/dining room give a fantastic open plan living feel, yet with the option of closing spaces off for more privacy. A brick inglenook fireplace and stone hearth with multifuel burning stove adds a wonderful homely feature. The stunning kitchen is beautifully appointed with integrated appliances including electric oven and hob, and dishwasher, promontory breakfast bar, space for a large American style fridge/freezer and a large dining table and chairs. This is the ultimate space for entertaining. A large store room or panty to the rear of the kitchen is a fantastic bonus and a stable style door to the outside is used as the informal entrance on a daily basis.
To the other side of the family room is a door to the rest of the house, nicely dividing the living rooms from the sleeping accommodation. The dual aspect principal bedroom is located at the far end of the hall, enjoying privacy from the rest of the house. It has a smart tasteful en-suite shower room with double width walk-in shower and rainfall head. A gorgeous, pristine, white bathroom with modern free-standing bath serves the further bedroom on the ground floor.
An elegant bespoke oak staircase curves up from the hall which has room for a seating area or desk, and the first floor houses two light, bright eaves bedrooms, both with rooms off them that have potential to be walk-in wardrobes and also have plumbing for en-suites.
Externally
Approached via paved drive with an abundance of parking, Brooms Lea Cottage offers expansive lawns and a sectioned off paddock with a hen house and run. Beside the house is a patio, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining whilst enjoying the idyllic countryside views. A stable block provides excellent storage for gardening equipment and a wooden summer house to the rear would make a great children’s play house. Brooms Lea Cottage covers approximately 1.31 acres all together.
