Goodacres are pleased to offer for sale this stunning Limestone cottage which was built in 1834 by the 7th Duke of Bedford and is packed full of its original features throughout.
The front entrance opens into a study area with tiled flooring, it leads through to the kitchen area which overlooks the enclosed back garden and includes the original Belfast sink, solid oak worktops, rangemaster oven, underfloor heating and space for appliances. The dining room has been extended by the current owner and features a vaulted ceiling with exposed oak beams, the original stone wall, reclaimed Spanish terracotta tiles and French doors which open to the rear garden. Further benefits include a cosy sitting room which is accessible through both the study and dining room. The spacious living area includes the original fireplace with a fully-functional log burner.
