Description River Cottage is a very pretty period home occupying a charming and unique setting beside the River Avon overlooking a millpond. The cottage forms the end wing of a former mill which was sympathetically converted in c.2015 into four individual homes, which include bespoke handmade, hardwood windows. In late 2017, the current owners enlarged the accommodation by converting the loft into a third bedroom. Today, the beautifully presented accommodation extends in all to 874 sq.ft spanning three floors. With such a tranquil picturesque setting, the cottage would be well suited as a second home or holiday let as well as a primary residence.
The ground floor comprises an entrance hall with WC/cloakroom off, a good sized bright living/dining room with direct views over the pond, whilst the stylish white gloss kitchen is well fitted with a range of built in Bosch appliances including a fridge-freezer, washing machine, dishwasher oven and hob. On the first floor there are two bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The top floor bedroom boasts ample built-in storage.
The property benefits from two allocated parking spaces located adjacent to the garden. The enclosed garden is arranged to the front laid to lawn whilst there is a delightful balcony terrace situated off the living room overlooking the pond, perfect for summer BBQs or an evening glass of wine.
