A thatched storm porch shelters the entrance and leads into an entrance hallway which has a tiled floor that continues throughout the ground floor. The kitchen is modern and is in a country-kitchen style with plenty of worktop space on three sides and a range of cream fitted base and wall units providing ample cupboard space Complete with under-cabinet feature lighting and tiled splashbacks. There is a built-in fan-oven with a ceramic hob and an extractor hood above, a stainless-steel sink and mixer tap, floor space for an upright fridge/freezer and space with plumbing beneath the worktop for a washing machine and slimline dishwasher. There is also a handy heated towel rail for drying the tea towels.
The living room has underfloor heating and is filled with light from a south facing window with a seat beneath. There is a handy under-stairs cupboard, integral display shelving and a fabulous stone Inglenook fireplace with a chunky oak lintel, fitted with a wood burning stove, making a wonderful feature and focal point for the room. There are low-level cupboards built into the recess on one side of the chimney breast and plenty of space for a dining table beneath the window, ideal for mealtimes.
Upstairs, there is plush carpet underfoot and two good-sized bedrooms, a twin room with a wardrobe and a window overlooking the quaint thatched tearoom opposite and a double with a fitted wardrobe built into the thick stone wall and an airing cupboard with an insulated hot water cylinder above the stairs. A modern bathroom has a vinyl floor and part-tiled walls containing a p-bath with an electric shower and glass screen above, a pedestal basin and a WC, all in white.
Also with this property, there is ancillary accommodation in the form of a fabulous one bedroom barn conversion, tastefully converted in approximately 2007 and located a few yards away beside Wray Brook and fronting onto woodland.
Accessed from a footpath, a gate leads into the garden, and rustic external doors open to reveal double-glazed hardwood inner doors to the property. Inside, it immediately feels warm and welcoming. A wonderful living area has a high vaulted ceiling and exposed timbers, and a durable tiled floor which continues throughout the ground floor. There is a wood burning stove which makes it feel cosy despite its high ceiling. This room flows through into a kitchen/dining room which has plenty of space for a dining table, and a modern, well-equipped fitted kitchen with a comprehensive range of integrated appliances including a fan-oven, with a ceramic hob and extractor hood above, a dishwasher, washing machine and fridge. A staircase leads up to a fabulous mezzanine double-bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and a hardwood balustrade overlooking the living area.
Beside the living area is a modern bathroom with a white suite comprising a centre-fill bath, with an electric shower and glass screen above, a pedestal basin, a WC, a chrome heated towel rail and a medicine cabinet with mirror doors. There is an airing cupboard with a hot water cylinder and immersion heater on a timer and, accessed via a vertical ladder there is also a second mezzanine area providing plenty of storage space, with a gate and hardwood balustrade.
Outside the garden is superb, private, south facing and bordered by Wray Brook. A footbridge crosses to the protected woodlands opposite, which is managed by the Wildlife Trust. The garden is low maintenance with a large terrace of paving dissected by gravel paths, creating an outside space perfect for entertaining, be it a barbecue or alfresco dining. A timber summerhouse provides useful storage, there is a lean-to log store for the wood burner and an outside tap for convenience.
Please note - Both the cottage and the barn offer fantastic potential for holiday lets. All contents, carpets and whitegoods etc. Are available by separate negotiation.
