* exciting potential and rarely available *
A truly unique 4/5 bedroom characterful cottage with commercial use and active planning permission to be extended all found within a popular village setting.
Description
Melody House is a deceptively spacious 4/5 bedroom property which is currently used as a successful B&B with a full premises alcohol license if required. Covering just over 2500 square foot the property has plenty of characterful features which include exposed treacle coloured timbers, inglenook fireplaces with wood burner and exposed brickwork which also has exciting extension possibilities with active planning permission granted for a one and a half storey extension to the rear.
You enter into the entrance porch which allows access into the spacious sitting room with dining room on your left and the snug on your right. Beyond the dining room is the fully fitted kitchen with door to the rear courtyard and access into the inner hallway currently used as the breakfast room. The snug is very cosy and has its own front door for more private use. Continuing through the property you arrive at the integrated annexe which could be used as an office space or fifth bedroom. There is a second rear lobby, ensuite and separate shower room which concludes the ground floor accommodation.
The first floor is accessed from the snug and opens into a long landing. This floor is very well presented with four double bedrooms, each of which having their own ensuite and two of which with baths, built in storage and plenty of charm. At the end of the landing is the staircase which allows access to the loft space with potential for further accommodation (subject to listed to building control).
To the rear is a lovely courtyard with oriental fish pond which is accessed from the property which leads onto a shingled area with additional seating and a shingle pathway allowing access to the rest of the garden. Most of the garden is predominantly laid to lawn with a variety of flowers and shrubs. At the back of the garden is a 5-bar gate accessed via a shared private driveway which allows access to the plenty off-road parking facilities, an outbuilding with fully functioning lavatory and separate log store shed.
