From the sitting room there is another latch door that leads into a well proportioned kitchen and dining room with a stable door to the rear garden and a window with an outlook over the garden. It is fitted with soft closing floor cupboards with a corner carousel plus an eye level cabinet and wall shelves. You will find a good amount of wood work surfaces with a matching upstand and an inset ceramic sink and drainer with a swan neck mixer tap. There is an integrated freezer, space for a slot in cooker and undercounter freezer (these retro appliances are available by separate negotiation) as well as plumbing for a washing machine. The large understairs cupboard is fitted with shelves and benefits from a light.
First Floor
Stairs rise and curve up to the landing where there is access to the part boarded loft space with a pull down ladder, and latch doors to the bedrooms and shower room. The shower room is fitted with a stylish modern suite consisting of a pedestal wash hand basin, WC and large walk in shower cubicle with an electric shower. The floor is laid in an attractive and practical vinyl in a wood effect herringbone pattern.
Both the bedrooms are double sized - the main bedroom looks out to the front and has a built in storage cupboards plus a built in double wardrobe. The second bedroom has an outlook over the rear garden.
Outside - Garden
The rear garden is accessed from the cottage as well as by an external path that leads through the neighbours to a gate that opens to the cottage's outdoor space. From the cottage's garden there is no further right of way, therefore the garden has great privacy. This has been delightfully landscaped with ease of maintenance in mind.
There is a paved seating area close to the back of the cottage and a meandering stone chipped path leads down to the bottom of the garden where there is a timber shed and raised planter. To either side of the path are deep beds planted with a variety of trees, shrubs and flowers - a magical cottage garden with plenty of appeal and good privacy, and much bigger than anticipated.
