Stylish 1850s Stone Cottage with Contemporary Flair, Garden Bar & Garage

Situated on a quiet village lane, this charming end-of-terrace stone cottage, dating back to the 1850s, has been beautifully transformed over the past decade from a dated home into a stylish, contemporary retreat. Thoughtfully updated while retaining its character, the property enjoys a peaceful setting within walking distance of the local shop, pubs, village hall, and primary school.

Step inside to discover a spacious sitting room with a cosy log-burning stove, perfect for relaxing evenings. The modern kitchen is both sleek and functional, featuring soft-closing cabinetry, integrated appliances, and tri-folding doors with integrated blinds, opening directly onto the garden—ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. There are three generous double bedrooms, along with a luxurious bathroom complete with a double-ended two-person bath. A separate cloakroom with WC and tabletop basin adds convenience, and there’s potential to create a first-floor cloakroom by re-configuring the layout.

The garden has been designed for easy maintenance and features a fantastic bar area, making it a wonderful space to unwind or host guests. The plot also borders a gentle brook, adding a touch of tranquility to the outdoor space.

To the side of the property is a garage with both front and rear opening doors, offering excellent storage or workshop potential and convenient through-access to the garden.

With period charm, modern comforts, and flexible living space, this home is move-in ready and full of character—offering a unique lifestyle opportunity in a sought-after village setting.

The Property -

Accommodation -

Inside - Ground Floor
The front door is located to the side of the cottage and opens into a spacious and bright sitting room with a log burner - ideal for those chilly autumn and winter evenings. The floor is laid in a practical wood effect laminate. The rest of the ground floor is tiled for practical reasons. There is a step down into the inner hall, where stairs rise to the first floor and doors open to the bathroom and cloakroom. There is an opening into the kitchen/dining room.

The kitchen/dining room has tri-folding doors, which have integrated blinds and open to the rear garden, bringing the outdoors in and are ideal for those sunny days. The sitting room does have enough room for dining if this is preferred. The kitchen is fitted with new Wren soft closing units, which consist of broom cupboard with power, corner walk in pantry, separate drawers with cutlery and deep pan drawers plus floor and eye level cupboards. You will find a generous amount of work surfaces with a matching upstand and a one and a half bowl sink and drainer with a swan neck mixer tap and tiled splash back. The fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine are integrated and there is a range cooker that may be purchased by separate negotiation.

The bathroom adds a touch of luxury to the home - there is a double ended bath with wall mounted tap and spout and mains shower above with a choice of hand held or rainfall shower head. The generously sized cloakroom has a WC and a circular table top wash hand basin. Both the bathroom and cloakroom benefit from automatic lighting.

First Floor
On this floor you will find three double bedrooms - one leads off from another. There is ample scope to create a first floor cloakroom - the pipework is in situ.

Outside - The property is approached from the lane via double metal gates that open to a small drive that leads up to the garage. This has double opening doors to the front and rear and benefits from light and power. A fabulous store and work shop but could be adapted as a work from home space.
A path leads along the side of the garage to the rear garden. This has been landscaped for ease of upkeep in mind. There is a large seating area that is paved in Indian Sandstone plus a decked area at the bottom of the garden where you will be able to hear the brook babble on its way to its destination. There is also a lawn and a home bar! The garden is a good size and benefits from plenty of sunshine
