House For Sale £675,000
Little Thatch is a Grade II Listed part thatch Cotswold stone cottage set down a quiet lane yet in the heart of the popular village of Long Compton. The cottage has been meticulously restored by the current owners and now has beautifully presented, versatile accommodation. The property boasts a wealth of period features including original beams, exposed stone walls and widow seats.
Little Thatch is approached through the front door into the inner hall with limestone tiled flooring and through then into the double aspect sitting room with original tiled floor, and central large inglenook fireplace with original inset bread oven. The fireplace has a cast iron fire grate and back fitted with a bioethanol fire.
The rear hallway is cleverly fitted with sideboard-style units housing the washing machine and tumble drier and runs through to the beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room.
No doubt this is the heart of the home with its full range of units incorporating a Belfast sink, double oven, induction hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and larder style unit. There is plenty of space for a dining room table and alternatively, the kitchen island is free standing and could be removed if not required. Bi-fold doors lead out to the rear south facing terrace.
Also to the ground floor is bedroom three/sitting room, a door out to the rear terrace, with a Jack and Jill style shower room. Upstairs the principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom with a shower above, a second double bedroom and a family bathroom with a roll-top bath and separate shower.
Garden
The property has gravelled off-lane parking with steps leading around to the rear terrace which wraps around the property and offers ideal space for al fresco entertaining. The garden is slightly raised with Cotswold stone walling and has an abundance of mature plants and trees and a pathway leading up to the former workshop, which could easily be added and converted to a home office if required.
