Byways is a quintessential Cotswold stone cottage, refurbished by the current owners to provide spacious living accommodation that will suit a number of buyers. The wealth of period features make this a truly delightful property that would make a wonderful weekend retreat or family home.
Approached over a driveway with parking for a number of cars, the path leads to the rear of the property through the delightful gardens.
The main door leads into the drawing/dining room with exposed beams and wooden floors. The large inglenook fireplace is a wonderful central feature which could incorporate a log burning stove subject to adjustments. Off the dining room is a fitted kitchen with Rayburn and Belfast sink, door through to a rear porch with cloakroom off and door to the front of the property. Off the drawing room there is an additional room, which is currently used as a bedroom but could alternatively be an additional reception room.
