What this property offers
About this property
A beautifully restored 1920s Wychert cottage, this charming home seamlessly blends period character with refined contemporary living, while also offering exciting potential for enlargement, with previously approved plans for a two-storey extension.
Upon entering, a welcoming entrance hallway with limestone flooring, immediately sets the tone for the quality and balance of the accommodation. The elegant sitting/dining room is both light-filled and inviting, enhanced by cast iron radiators and a bespoke built-in dining bench, creating a superb space for both everyday living and entertaining.
At the heart of the home lies an impressive kitchen/breakfast room, thoughtfully designed with an extensive range of shaker-style painted units, integrated appliances, and a striking marble island with breakfast bar. A separate pantry provides excellent additional storage. A versatile third bedroom or study, along with a cloakroom, completes the ground floor.
To the first floor are two generous double bedrooms, including a well-appointed principal suite with fitted wardrobes and delightful views across the garden and surrounding countryside. The beautifully finished bathroom features a freestanding bath and separate rainfall shower.
The property also benefits from previously granted planning permission (now lapsed) for a two-storey extension, which would create a substantial additional bedroom suite with en-suite facilities, as illustrated within the floorplan. This offers clear potential to further enhance the accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.
Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, there is allocated parking for two vehicles, with a gravelled area leading to the side where the air source heat pump is discreetly positioned. The rear garden is a particular highlight, offering a large terrace with outdoor kitchen/BBQ area, opening onto an expansive lawn with raised borders. Beyond a charming wattle fence lies further garden space, ideal for an orchard or kitchen garden, with a gate providing direct access to open countryside. A truly special home combining charm, practicality, and future potential. Council Tax Band: E | EPC: E | Tenure: Freehold | Air Source Heat Pump
