3 Bedroom Terraced House

THE AGENT SAYS...
3 Bridge Road is a deceptively spacious property set in a superb rural location, with footpaths opposite the cottage and open fields front and rear. This practical home is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts with courtyard access at the front, a tiled hallway, utility, and downstairs shower room. The sitting room is wonderfully cosy and at the rear is the superb kitchen/dining room which is full of character. There are two bedrooms and a loft room with potential to be a third bedroom (subject to building regulations). If that were not enough, the cottage also has a large, lawned garden with a smart new patio dining area.

THE PROPERTY
The main entrance opens to the hall which has a shelf, coat hooks, built-in bench, shoe storage, and tiled floor. Adjoining the hall is the utility - with the same practical tiled floor - which houses the boiler, stacked washing machine and tumble drier, and offers further storage. The hall leads into the cosy sitting room which is centred around a wood-burning stove and decorated in a deep colour to create a cocooning feel. Light comes in from the front window and is also borrowed from the kitchen via an internal window.

At the rear is the farmhouse kitchen which is much larger than one might expect. In the entrance to the kitchen there is a shower room/WC to the left, with a pillar creating separation from the kitchen space. The shower room is smartly finished in a traditional style and comprises corner shower cubicle, WC and wash basin. The kitchen is fitted along three walls and comprises dove grey shaker style units, tiled splashback, scaffold board shelves, and oak worktop, all of which contrast beautifully with the characterful flagstone floor. A large dining table sits in the centre of the room with plenty of space for a separate sideboard and a bar cabinet and shelves. French doors lead out to the sunny conservatory at the rear.

Stairs rise from the kitchen to the first floor where there are two bedrooms, the recently renovated family bathroom, and a separate WC. The principal bedroom is a good-sized double room with a builtin cupboard and space for a large additional wardrobe and chest of drawers. Bedroom 2 can accommodate a small double bed for guests or works well as a single room. In the loft is an additional room which has staircase access, skylights, electricity, lighting, and carpets. This fully decorated room is used as an occasional bedroom - with space for a double bed - and there is access to the eaves storage from here.

OUTSIDE
At the front of the property is a walled courtyard with the main entrance to one side. The oil tank is screened by trellis and there is an integral log store alongside the sitting room. Fencing and a pedestrian gate separate the property from the street, where there is unrestricted off road parking.

The rear garden is divided into three zones and this could be developed further to create a series of distinct garden 'rooms' if desired. Alternatively the lawned areas could be combined into one. Abutting the house is a basic paved patio which leads down to a smart, newly paved outdoor dining area. A pathway through the shrubs leads to a lawned garden, which is partially divided by further trees/ shrubs. At the far end of the lawn is a polytunnel and shed. A further pedestrian gate opens directly to a further area of garden, which benefits from a right of way across the neighbouring property to get things in and out of the garden.
