PERIOD DETACHED COTTAGE HAVING BEEN EXTENDED IN PREVIOUS YEARS TO PROVIDE A CONTEMPORARY FEEL WITH CHARMING GARDENS AND SEPARATE GARDEN ROOM
With origins dating back to 1735, this detached period cottage occupies a discreet position within a quiet backwater of this sought after village. The property has been sympathetically extended by the current owners, combining modern features with traditional character.
The accommodation is entered via a timber stable door, opening into a substantial vaulted kitchen, dining and living area. This impressive space forms part of the extension and features a glazed gable end overlooking the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and eye level units, timber work surfaces, a Butler sink, and a gas fired twin plate Rayburn. Adjoining the kitchen is a utility area with access to a useful cloakroom. This space benefits from underfloor heating, tiled flooring and Velux windows, ensuring a light and airy feel.
A dining hall with period fireplace connects to the principal reception rooms and includes stairs to the first floor, understairs storage, painted ceiling beams and pine doors. The spacious dual aspect living room features underfloor heating, exposed stonework and twin bi fold doors opening onto the rear patio. A further reception room/snug includes a feature brick fireplace with timber mantle, wood burning stove, exposed ceiling timbers and a window to the front.
To the first floor, the landing provides access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom benefits from a vaulted ceiling, gable end window, dressing area and en-suite shower room. One further bedroom also features a vaulted ceiling with gable end window with mezzanine above.

The property is quietly located just off Manor Road on the no-through road The Knoll and approached via a five bar gate leading to mature gardens, predominately laid to lawn with various flower and shrub borders and maturing trees including fruit and conifer. There are several entertaining areas with sunken patio and built in BBQ with pizza oven.
