House For Sale £520,000
Bryant’s Cottage is a truly delightful Grade II Listed detached dwelling of 17th Century origins with 18 Century alterations and 20th Century additions located within the picturesque semi-rural Wiltshire hamlet of Bapton.
Oozing with character Bryant’s Cottage is constructed of painted rubble stone and chalk with a half-hipped thatched roof and brick stacks. There are many fine period features including exposed beams, flagstone, brick, slate and natural wooden floors, two working fireplaces; an inglenook in the sitting room with inset log burner. There are a variety of original casement windows, period timber doors and panelling throughout the cottage.
The comfortable accommodation comprises four reception rooms, a generous utility room and a fabulous farmhouse-style kitchen which was formerly the village bakers shop. The kitchen has a slate floor, working double oven Aga and excellent array of cupboards and cabinets including a large original shop dresser-style unit with cupboards and drawers; there is also a wide window seat, shutters and a beamed ceiling. The first floor has a generous master bedroom with an ensuite wc, a second double bedroom and a good sized bathroom; both bedrooms have an excellent range of bespoke fitted wardrobes and cupboards.
Additionally the former bake house provides separate ancillary accommodation comprising a large open plan bedroom/sitting area with an adjoining ensuite bathroom and French doors leading directly onto the garden. A modern/contemporary extension would link the bake house to the main cottage beautifully which would then be incorporated into the main body of the cottage.
There is a large gravelled drive and a substantial detached garage with two pairs of folding double doors, power and light; all located to the left hand side of the cottage . There is a second gravelled drive for additional parking adjoining the bake house which would be ideal parking for visitors and guests.
