A charming renovated period cottage in a delightful position on the edge of the popular village of Alburgh with approximately 2 acres.
Property - The property is a charming characterful period cottage that has been updated and refurbished by the current vendors and now offers spacious and well-presented accommodation. Whilst there is an official front door, the vendors tend to use the back door that leads into a spacious boot room/rear hall. The inner rear hall runs across the back of the house. The triple aspect sitting room has French doors to the garden plus a large feature open fireplace with woodburning stove. Off the sitting room is a further reception room that the vendors currently use as a study. A door leads to the front hall. The kitchen/breakfast room, which is accessed from the front and rear halls, has been refitted by the current vendors in a range of shaker style wall and base units. There is also a cloakroom on the ground floor.
On the first floor the principal bedroom has lovely views to the front and a refitted ensuite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, a study and a bathroom with bath and shower and a separate w.c across the landing.
The property is approached from the road via a gravel driveway providing parking for several cars leading to the detached garage with adjacent woodstore. The gardens are a delightful feature of the property and include an array of established trees and shrubs, a pond and a summer house. There is a delightful paved patio for alfresco dining. Beyond the garden is a menage and paddock making it perfect for those with a pony and there is a stable building with two loose boxes.
