Villa Cottage offers warm, character-filled accommodation which has undergone a programme of refurbishment during the current owner’s tenure, including rewiring throughout, new windows, a new roof, boiler, solar panels and fitted bedroom furniture.
The accommodation flows from a welcoming through reception hall with original quarry-tiled flooring, a WC, and two staircases to the first floor. It comprises three inter-connecting reception rooms, which enjoy original wooden flooring, a character-filled snug with exposed brickwork walls that further enhance the heritage feel. A sitting room with sash glazing, a fireplace with wood burner and access to the rear terrace and a fully fitted study that leads to the extension to the front of the property. With underfloor heating this space offers a multitude of uses such as a one-bedroom disabled access annexe or a studio/office. It has its own entrance and modern shower room with a walk-in shower and Motif blue tiles.
The charming, traditional country-style dining kitchen features a range of natural wood cabinetry and worktops that add a rustic tone. A striking original range with a working original bread over is set into the chimney breast and provides a charming focal point, complemented by red tiled splashbacks. The kitchen is thoughtfully laid out with ample worktop space and a classic Belfast sink. At the far end, a family dining area sits by a window, creating an inviting space for meals and gatherings. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a useful fitted utility room providing further space for storage and appliances.
The original staircase rising from the reception hall gives access to a part-vaulted double bedroom with wooden flooring, Velux and front aspect glazing, built-in storage and an en suite bathroom. The second, rear staircase gives access to two further bedrooms, both with wooden flooring and fitted wardrobes. The spacious part-vaulted L-shaped principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, while the other bedroom has a part-vaulted en suite bathroom.
Services: Mains gas, electricity, water and drainage. Central heating with combi boiler. Solar panels.
The property is approached through a central wooden pedestrian gate set into mature hedging. A central paved path leading to the front door and annexe is flanked on each side by a wealth of landscaped mature planting and topiary.
