House For Sale £325,000
Charming Grade II listed cottage with lovely garden.
Description
The Cottage is a delightful Grade II listed home situated in the popular village of Badby, comprising of stone and new cement board roof.
This home has already been modernised and upgraded by the current owners whilst still retaining and preserving a wealth of period and character features. There are still works to be carried out allowing you to truly put your own stamp on the property.
Upon entering, there are two reception rooms and a kitchen on the ground floor. The kitchen offers a range of built in appliances, including an induction hob, oven and dishwasher, unit storage and a door leading to the rear garden. The sitting room is the hub of the house, offering cosy living with a charming inglenook and fireplace, and still allowing plenty of light to flood the room. The second reception room has been improved and utilised to enhance the current space with a nook/ breakfast bar and storage spaces making it perfect for a dining area or even a handy extra work space.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The principal bedroom is complimented with generous space and continues to expose charming original features such as exposed original beams and window seats. The current owners are using the second room as a dressing room, but there is easy scope for another bedroom or even altering to create a home office. The family bathroom is modern with a bath, waterfall shower, marble tiling and has even been fitted with trendy lighting.
Outside is an absolute joy. It is very unusual to have such an impressive plot with a village cottage like this. The garden offers so much potential, making it ideal to input your own landscape design. It is a fantastic size, predominantly laid to lawn with an outbuilding with pipes connected, raised seating areas and vegetable patches, allowing you to enjoy the south facing sun, perfect for alfresco dining or summer evening entertaining.
In conclusion, the house enjoys a real sense of light, incorporating contemporary living mixed with embracing traditional period features. Sitting on the edge of the village, there is a sense of being part of the community, yet still enjoying considerable space and privacy.
