House For Sale £565,000
A substantial period house offering particularly flexible accommodation, complemented by beautiful gardens whilst situated within the heart of the pretty village of Lawshall.
Pantile Cottage is a delightful semi detached cottage thought to have origins dating back to at least the 16th century and in recent years has been much improved for the current owners, resulting in a charming home retaining a wealth of original features fused with more modern styles and conveniences, including smart modern style kitchen breakfast room and bathrooms and an ideal adjoining annexe/further accommodation.
The surprising level of deceptively spacious accommodation comprises of; an entrance porch leading to an impressive part vaulted and galleried reception hall, displaying an array of timbers demonstrating the original timber frame of the house with a staircase to the first floor and open studwork to a charming dining area with fireplace. The newly enlarged and remodelled kitchen breakfast room is particularly well-equipped with lovely clean lines and includes a range oven and other integral appliances, French doors open to the gardens. There is a comfortable sitting room with a wealth of exposed timbers and a large red brick fireplace with wood burning stove. The ground floor accommodation, which is largely open plan also includes a study, ground floor guest bedroom, newly upgraded bathroom and shower room and a spacious annexe sitting/family room providing a variety of uses with its adjoining utility/cloakroom/potential annexe kitchen and its own entrance.

Outside
The cottage is approached along a block paved driveway providing plenty of vehicle parking and turning space. Side access leads to the rear gardens which are an outstanding feature of the house, being stocked with an abundance of flowering plants, shrubs, specimen and mature trees and well stocked flower beds whilst providing the occupants with an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion. Meticulously maintained lawns extend to a prolific vegetable garden with a lodge that includes power and lighting, storage shed and a large paved terrace creates an ideal area for outdoor entertaining and alfresco dining. All in about 1/3rd of an acre.
