Charming detached cottage in the heart of capel village with delightful gardens and direct access onto 1.35 acre field .............................
The Old Smithy, 145 The Street, is a charming detached period cottage with a wealth of character and history connected to Capel Village and dating back, we believe, to the 17th century. The property would benefit from some updating and occupies a position in the centre of the village within walking distance to the shop, pub and church. A unique feature of the property is the 1.35 acre field situated directly behind and accessed via a gate in the rear garden wall. Accessed via a path to the side of the garage you will be met by a porch, the front door leads to the sitting room with an attractive inglenook fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room has a partly vaulted ceiling and gives onto the conservatory at the rear providing a wonderful outlook over the rear garden and field beyond. The study/bedroom 3 and a large shower room complete the ground floor space. To the first floor, there are two double bedrooms, both with vaulted ceilings, the second bedroom also has a WC, whilst there is also an useful eaves storage area. Outside to the front is the double garage, formerly The Old Smithy to the village, a door leads to the useful home office/studio, which has power, light and plumbing, double doors from the office open onto the terrace beyond. The gardens are a particular feature being on three sides with an open and sunny aspect whilst providing interest and seclusion. A gate in the rear wall leads directly onto the 1.35 acre field. N.B. The access to the field is pedestrian only and is through the gate in the rear garden. There is a 5 bar gate on the southern boundary of the field to enable occasional access for maintenance as required, such as cutting the grass.
