House For Sale £350,000
Ref : JM0133 A hidden gem tucked away on a very quiet no through road, with an elevated location benefitting from extensive views both from the front of the property and the long rambling cottage garden to the rear. Who could fail to fall in love with this quarryman's cottage? Beautifully maintained and improved with excellent attention to character details such as stripped wood doors with traditional fittings, alcoves and Victorian style fireplaces in the living room and master bedroom. Modern improvements are also in abundance, with recent double glazing throughout, a modern cottage kitchen, with integrated washing machine, dishwasher, double oven, hob and hood and water softener, a large and light modern fitted bathroom, and recessed spotlights in appropriate areas. The large living room has a cosy feel despite the size, a gorgeous Victorian style fireplace and views to the front. This property also benefits from an excellent and useful rear extension, which has added a good sized additional room to the rear, open plan to the living room, and currently used as both a dining room and study area. The extension also adds a rear boot room accessed from the kitchen and giving a perfect place for storage, coats and muddy wellies when you come in through the rear door! Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and the bathroom. The main bedroom is a good sized double, with it's own feature fireplace and views over the garden. Bedroom 2 and 3 could both fit a small double, but would be best utilised as two excellent single bedrooms or occasional guest space. The main bathroom is fitted beautifully in white fittings and tiling, with a shower over the bath with glass screen and useful storage cupboard .
The garden is a real feature of this gorgeous home, with a raised deck area at the top of the garden, where you can sit sipping a cold drink and watching the sun go down over the Bybrook Valley on an evening. This is a private and secluded garden, surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. With two further seating areas, one right outside the rear door, and one a little further up along the winding path. A large shed provides an excellent storage area half way up and both rear and side access are available. Your own little oasis set in the countryside, but within short walking distance to the local village centre.
