House For Sale £900,000
Sunnyside Cottage is a wonderful family home situated in a very attractive setting, within walking distance to the River Severn and adjoining farmland. It sits proudly in the heart of the highly desirable village of Littleton-upon-Severn. The village includes an excellent pub, village hall, Littleton Evangelical Church and a pretty parish church just outside the village in St Mary's de Malmesbury.
It was lovingly built by the current family approximately 56 years ago. It is very pretty and offers the character of period property with an abundance of period-style features, and yet is still relatively modern. Of particular note is the wood craftmanship, as the owner was a carpenter by trade. The interior has a lovely atmosphere.
The reception hall is spacious and has a staircase leading to the first floor. To the right of the reception hall is a dining room/snug with open fire and a hatch leading to the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen/breakfast room is a lovely, spacious and light room with a number of fitted oak units. It overlooks the pretty garden and neighbours a well-appointed garden room with doors out to a stone entertaining terrace and stunning garden beyond. To the left of the reception hall and off the garden room is the spacious sitting room, complete with wood burning stove and views over the front garden.
The ground floor offers flexibility as there is a door from the garden room into a spacious and self-contained annexe, which can be separated from the house or integrated to provide a fourth and even fifth bedroom in the main house. The accommodation includes its own entrance, open plan kitchen/living room and a double en suite bedroom. It is well-presented and offers potential income having been rented out by the current owners.
Off the charming first floor landing there are three bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en suite bedroom. They all have attractive outlooks and are spacious. There are two double bedrooms and a large single bedroom. Of particular note is the master bedroom suite, which is dual aspect, has lovely views over the garden and is complete with bespoke fitted oak cupboards. All the bedrooms have fitted cupboards. There is access to a very spacious boarded attic off the landing, as well as a linen cupboard.
There is further ancillary accommodation with its own access. It includes a spacious living room with kitchenette, a large storage cupboard and an en suite shower room. Once again, it offers flexibility in its use as guest accommodation, ancillary accommodation, home office, or games room. It is not integrated into the main house but is connected.
Outside
The front garden is very attractive and is presented in the style of an 'English country garden', bordered by a stone wall, with an array of mature shrubs and plants. There is access to both the main annexe and the secondary annexe from the front of the house on either side of the house, with a central and attractive oak porch at its centre.
There is a private drive down the side of the property off Rushen Lane, which is accessed through a wooden gate, where there is parking for several cars to the rear of the property. It leads to a bespoke double garage, offering an abundance of space. This offers potential, subject to the necessary consents.
The mature gardens are a delight and have been planned and planted for interest and colour. There is a stone terrace to the rear of the house that leads to an expanse of lawn, with pathways beyond the lawn leading from one area of garden to the other, creating compartments. There are deep shaped beds and borders planted with a variety of shrubs, flowering plants, ornamental trees, pond and spring bulbs and heathers. Climbing shrubs include roses, vines and wisteria. There is a well-appointed kitchen garden and wildflowers. Fruit trees include apple and pear.
