Description
Rowan Cottage is a very attractive thatched cottage. The accommodation is both well proportioned and flexible and is complemented by generous gardens which benefit from a useful garden room/home office. The ground floor accommodation provides a double aspect beamed sitting room with fireplace, a double aspect beamed kitchen/breakfast room with a kitchen by John Lewis of Hungerford, a separate dining room and a garden room/family room. The first floor has four good sized bedrooms, a bathroom and an ensuite.
Outside
The property enjoys gardens to both front and rear with the front garden providing off street parking. This garden offers a high degree of maturity with established plants and shrubs and a path leading to the front door. There is a further gate which leads to the lane at the side of the property. The front garden is partly enclosed by stone walling.
The current owners have carried out extensive works including landscaping the rear garden and this now provides an open plan space with a patio adjacent to the house, lawn beyond and offers a high degree of seclusion. Double gates lead into the rear garden and provide additional hard standing to the car park space in the front garden and there is also the benefit of an insulated home office/summer house with high speed cabled broadband.
