House For Sale £450,000
This double fronted Edwardian cottage, is located in a most idyllic setting along a pretty lane in Sharpstone; a pretty hamlet adjacent to the most sought after village of Freshford. The front entrance is flanked by the kitchen and snug and with windows to both the front and the rear, the kitchen is a light and airy room. It has fitted units, a space for a breakfast table and a central cast iron stove fitted with a practical gas fire; a door leads directly out to the rear garden. The snug also has a central fireplace, plus windows to the front and a door leading to an adjacent study/utility area. This may have the possibility to be extended to create a third bedroom, or could be utilised into a home office, as it opens into the side courtyard providing a separate entrance if desired. The tour takes us back to the snug, where stairs lead up to the first floor and straight ahead is the sitting room, which benefits from a central Bath stone fireplace, plus windows and a door leading to the garden.
The first floor houses the main bedroom with dual aspect, plus a single bedroom and the bathroom. With features such as wood panelling, sash windows and wonderful views from the garden, this truly is a charming cottage.
Situation
Sharpstone is a hamlet adjacent and part of the village of Freshford. Freshford is a village that is in high demand. It offers easy access into Bath city centre and still retains a sense of community by way of a primary school, community village store/cafe and local inn. Also on the edge of the village is Homewood Park; a handsome country house hotel and spa. Freshford still has a railway station and nearby Avon Cliff has a ‘request stop’, which enables commuters to travel into Bath and then onto London (Paddington). It also provides easy access for work or school to either Bradford on Avon or Bath.
Outside
Glen Cottage is a pretty double fronted cottage, believed to date back to the Edwardian era constructed of Bath stone under a slate tiled roof with attractive sash windows. Railings enclose the flower beds under the windows either side of the front door. A side courtyard has pedestrian access from the lane, providing a seating area or possibly space to extend the existing single storey room, subject to the usual consents. The rear garden can be approached via both the kitchen and the sitting room. The terrace adjacent to the house provides a lovely spot to sit out and enjoy the leafy aspect. The garden then continues with a central path bordered by deep herbaceous borders, including mature shrubs and a perfectly shaped Christmas tree. At the far end the view along the valley is superb.
