Description
A delightful, curved brick wall leads you round to a private terrace which is a sunny oasis, ideal for when the day transitions to evening. The terrace becomes a magical setting for dining and enjoying sundowners with friends and family. The cottage's unique highlight is its own rural pub, a delightful modern bar, that brings a touch of whimsy and offers the perfect backdrop for gatherings and celebrations.
For those seeking relaxation, the sauna and shower offer a spa-like experience, while the hot tub promises indulgent moments of leisure. Surrounded by breathtaking rural views, the outdoor spaces provide the perfect environment to create lasting memories.
The KITCHEN/DINING/FAMILY ROOM is, quite simply, stunning and gloriously spacious. This is an amazing place in which the family can come together for cooking, eating or simply relaxing. As you would expect, the kitchen is fully fitted and has areas for making meals, preparing teas and coffees and a separate area for breakfast. It really is a most remarkable space. With room enough for a large kitchen table and for all the family to sit in front of the large inglenook fireplace, and with patio doors opening out onto the terrace, this really is the hub of the house.
Off here, a UTILITY room houses the washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also a sensibly sized ground floor CLOAKROOM.
The country cottage facade belies the generous space that greets you when you step through the large PORCH, a great place to hang hats, coats and boots, and then into the SITTING ROOM.
Its open inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove sits centrally to the room, light flooding in from all sides, and patio doors opening onto the vast terrace. The SNUG is a generous room with parquet flooring, hardwood fire surround, square bays and timber beams hinting back to the cottage it once was.
From the sitting room, stairs rise to further accommodation.
The PRINCIPAL SUITE has a terrace opening to rural views, how wonderful to sit out in the morning with your first cup of the day! There is a DRESSING ROOM and ENSUITE SHOWER ROOM.
There are TWO further DOUBLE BEDROOMS, both with ENSUITE SHOWER ROOMS.
A HOME OFFICE completes the first floor accommodation, with views out to the lane to the front.
