Description
59 High Street is a charming Grade II listed attached cottage, and is believed to date from the early 19th century. The light and spacious accommodation is arranged over three floors, and has been sympathetically maintained to a high standard by the current owners, combining character features with modern embellishments. The superb established gardens enjoy a westerly aspect, and provide a lovely backdrop to the house. The property is located in the heart of the popular village of Seal, benefits from garaging and off road parking, and is well situated for rail and road links.
Features include multi pane windows, oak flooring to the dining room, open fireplaces, vaulted ceilings, some exposed ceiling timbers and thumb latch doors.
The open plan principal reception rooms comprise a light and spacious sitting room which benefits from a fireplace with wood burning stove, and a dining room with an open fireplace and staircase rising to the first floor. Both rooms have built-in cupboards.
The stylish kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units, has a view and access to the rear terrace. Solid oak worktops incorporate a 1½ butler sink. Integral AEG appliances include a dishwasher, electric hob with extractor over and double oven. Space for a fridge freezer.
The lobby has built-in storage cupboards and leads to a well-appointed shower room with a separate WC and a utility room with space for appliances.
Arranged over the first floor is the bright and well-proportioned master bedroom with a charming feature fireplace, a view to the front and a contemporary en suite shower room.
Also on this floor is a light and spacious double bedroom with views to the front. There is also a store room/airing cupboard.
Arranged over the second floor are two further bedrooms, each with views to the front or rear. One room is currently used as an office.
The house is approached via a communal electric gate and driveway, leading to the double open bay garage and additional ample parking. Steps lead to the front door flanked by raised shrub beds.
To the rear of the property, a paved terrace, surrounded by established raised beds, with a pergola and water feature, provides a lovely area for al fresco entertaining. Steps lead to the glorious west facing garden which offers a high degree of privacy and is predominantly laid to lawn. Shaped herbaceous beds and borders are planted with a variety of specimen trees, shrubs and plants, including sedum, hibiscus, climbing rose, lavender, fig and monkey puzzle trees, creating year round interest. There is also a charming summerhouse, with power connected, a shed and a vegetable patch.
