The Property

This gorgeous grade II listed home will not disappoint if you are looking for a property that is full of character and charm. Built circa 1700 the house offers spacious 3 bedroom accommodation with the benefit of a pretty garden with views to the river and a very useful basement/garage.

The current owners have renovated the property whilst retaining many of the original features such as beautiful floorboards, wall panelling and beamed ceilings. The thick walls and deep-cilled windows ensure the cottage is cosy in the winter and cool in the summer with oil-fired central heating and a woodburner in the sitting room for those chillier evenings.

Upon entering the house through the front door off the garden, there is a porch and small entrance hall with W/C, which opens to the welcoming dining room with windows to the front and rear of the property. A beautiful wooden floor runs throughout the ground floor.

The owners have installed a bespoke kitchen, keeping it traditional with solid wood base units and a cleverly designed pantry, nestled into the chimney breast.

Stairs from the kitchen lead to the first floor.

From the dining room, a door opens to the charming sitting room with dual aspect windows and beautiful, wide-plank wooden floor. A woodburner is set into the hearth, and this lovely room offers a relaxing vibe to read or entertain friends.

On the first floor, the character continues with beamed ceilings, beautiful wall panelling and windows overlooking the lovely garden.

There is a principal bedroom with a window overlooking the garden and an en-suite bathroom with a panelled bath and shower attachment, WC, and wash basin. There are two further double bedrooms, both with windows to the back of the property and views to the village.

A spacious family bathroom has a bath with shower attachment, a separate shower cubicle, WC and wash basin.

Accessed from either the garden or garage entrance, there is a very useful basement. This area runs under the property and offers parking, boat storage space and a utility area where the current owners have a washing machine, freezer, sink etc.... There is a further storage area to one end and a separate room houses the oil tank.

Outside

To the front of the property, there is a beautiful garden which is laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging and fencing. There are a number of mature trees and shrubs and a paved patio located near the front door, which is an ideal area for al fresco dining or a spot of sunbathing. A paved pathway leads through the garden, and there is a lovely view of the river and countryside beyond. Located at the end of the garden, there is a stone outbuilding.
