A five-bar gate opens to a gravelled drive where the front of the home is framed by well-established gardens and a charming patio, ideal for outdoor dining beneath the canopy of mature trees. A covered carport adjoins the property, offering sheltered parking or useful storage.
Step through the main entrance into a welcoming reception hall which provides access into the principal living accommodation. The living room is a beautifully atmospheric space, full of character with exposed beams, a feature stone fireplace housing a wood-burning stove, and French doors opening into the sunroom. This large and flexible reception room lends itself to a variety of uses and has lovely views over the gardens to the front and side.
Double doors lead into the sunroom – a light and peaceful space, doors open directly to the front patio and gardens, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.
The kitchen is a standout feature of the home – bespoke in style and full of country charm, with a comprehensive range of cabinetry and integrated appliances, including a range cooker and additional Aga-style gas stove. Dual ceramic sinks, plenty of worktop space and tiled splashbacks complete the look. There is ample space for a dining table and chairs, with windows on three sides bringing in natural light and framing views of the grounds.
A walk-in pantry retains original flagstone flooring and provides excellent storage, while a good-sized rear hall and boot room offer practical access to the gardens, complete with a concrete ramp for ease of entry.
The ground floor also features a fitted wet room, stylishly appointed with contemporary tiling, a rainfall shower, wash basin and WC – designed with both comfort and accessibility in mind.
From the hallway, a staircase rises to a spacious and light-filled landing. This area is currently used as a reading nook and office space, with built-in bookshelves and Velux rooflights above.
The main bedroom is a generous double, enjoying dual-aspect windows overlooking the surrounding countryside. There is excellent built-in storage and plenty of space for freestanding furniture. The second bedroom is equally attractive, also with dual aspect and a decorative fireplace. A third double bedroom is currently used as a hobby room and enjoys views over the front gardens.
The first floor shower room is tastefully finished with large format tiling and includes a spacious walk-in shower, WC, wash basin with vanity, and a bidet. An airing cupboard and additional linen cupboard provide useful storage.
Outside, Holly Cottage truly comes into its own. The gardens have been thoughtfully developed to provide a blend of ornamental planting, productive space and natural wildlife habitats.
Immediately to the front of the property lies a lawned garden with raised flower beds and a patio terrace ideal for entertaining. A meandering gravel path winds through a well-stocked cottage garden, filled with vibrant perennials, ornamental grasses and mature shrubs.
A productive orchard, vegetable garden with raised beds, rows of soft fruit and a large polytunnel cater for those with a passion for growing. There is also a practical composting area, log store and a timber workshop tucked away to the side.
Towards the rear, the land transitions into a delightful section of private woodland, rich in native trees and home to various wildlife species. Two well-established widlife ponds and a brook that runs along the boundary add further interest. A gated access from the road and hard standing allows entry to the woodland independently of the house.
Price has been re-adjusted to account for the septic tank that may need replacing in the future.
