This charming cottage seamlessly blends historic character with a NEW THATCH and a high-specification MODERN KITCHEN. Ideally located on Chapel Street, the property has been beautifully redecorated throughout and offers a private garden with exciting potential to extend.
DESCRIPTION
This exquisite cottage has recently undergone extensive refurbishment, including a brand-new thatched roof and full redecoration, ensuring it is both structurally sound and beautifully presented.
A welcoming entrance porch leads into a formal dining room with exposed brickwork, original beams and a log burner. This flows into a spacious living room with French doors opening onto the patio. The standout feature of the renovation is the newly fitted kitchen, finished in a neutral palette that complements the home’s character while offering modern functionality.
Upstairs, a generous landing leads to two well-proportioned bedrooms and an upgraded family bathroom. The principal bedroom is full of character with built-in storage and feature beams, while the second bedroom enjoys pleasant views over the rear garden. The contemporary bathroom includes a four-piece suite with separate shower and bath. A large loft with pull-down ladder offers excellent storage and potential to extend, subject to planning permission, in line with neighbouring properties.
OUTSIDE
To the rear of the property lies a delightful private garden with an inviting patio area, perfect for al-fresco dining, with steps leading up to a well-maintained lawn. This secluded outdoor retreat is bordered by mature trees at the far end and includes a practical garden shed with electrical connection and lighting, along with convenient side access to the property.
