THE PROPERTY
Orchard Cottage is a beautifully presented and sympathetically modernised country home, thoughtfully adapted to provide flexible and versatile living. Originally two cottages, the property has been transformed into a single, spacious detached residence, blending period charm with modern comfort.
The ground floor features a welcoming reception hall with stairs to the first floor and doors leading to the main sitting room and the dining area. A further reception room lies beyond the sitting room, ideal as a snug, family room, or study. The dining area flows into a well-appointed kitchen, whilst there is also a useful utility room and a rear lobby giving access to a downstairs shower room complete with fitted sauna.
The upstairs is cleverly divided into two wings, accessed by separate staircases. The main section, approached from the reception hall, offers three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A guest wing, accessed via the utility room, provides a further double bedroom and an additional study or fifth bedroom.
Externally, the cottage is complemented by beautifully maintained gardens, with extensive lawns, established borders, and fruit trees. Wisteria and a thriving grapevine frame the south-facing frontage, while PV solar panels add a modern and eco-conscious touch. The property further benefits from ample driveway parking, two detached garages, a shed, greenhouse, and vegetable beds.
