A beautiful Grade II Listed cottage with painted brick infilling and curved braces to the first floor beneath a steeply pitched tiled roof. The cottage is in the heart of the village in a secluded location that makes a wonderful period home with immense character and excellent access to the village High Street with all amenities. The entrance porch leads to a very good sized dining room and there is a separate sitting room with magnificent Inglenook fireplace. The kitchen is well fitted with cottage style units and there is also a utility room and further porch at the rear giving access to the garden. To the ground floor there is also a bathroom/wc. The first floor landing gives access to three bedrooms and a bathroom. The cottage was constructed in the 17th century and has many exposed timbers, period doors and quality replaced windows with hardwood frames and leaded lights that maintain the origins of this charming cottage. The ceilings heights are generous for a cottage of this age. The wonderful gardens wrap around the home with an array of planting including deep flower beds and borders, and there are several areas of lawn. Patios are found in strategic places to allow for sun and shade and are wonderful places to sit and admire the cottage and its gardens. There is a summerhouse and potting shed. Garage and parking are another feature of the cottage as its approach is by a private drive that leads to double opening gates, into the drive and garage, with a turning point for ease.
