Description
Grade II listed Beam Cottage is thought to date from the C17 and we understand was once 3 separate cottages. In 2010 the cottage was extended with addition of the hall, utility, workshop, studio and double garage.
The font door opens into the spacious and modern hall which leads to the enormously characterful main house with its lovely exposed beams and brick work. The high quality kitchen has an Aga, marble work tops and a superb 2 draw dishwasher.
The cosy snug and dining room are adjacent. There is also study and garden room. Separate staircases lead to the principal bedroom with ensuite and 2 other bedrooms and bathroom. Above the garage is the large studio/office room which might also be used as a 4th bedroom.
Outside

The garden is enclosed by fencing and hedging and there is a good working garden area with shed. The workshop is accessed from the garden. The double garage has electric doors opening on to he drive.
