The Accommodation
1 Yew Tree Cottage is believed to date from 1896 and is constructed of brick with part rendered elevations with decorative timber façade under a slate roof. The property benefits from mains gas central heating and has use of a private drainage system. Whilst the accommodation is currently very comfortable there is certainly scope for a form of modernisation and extension creating a substantial increase in floor area across 2 floors subject to gaining a relevant planning permission. There is no doubt this opportunity will appeal to a wide range of buyers from investors to private buyers looking for a permanent home.
The front door opens into a staircase hall which links directly onto the living room having a stone chimneypiece with timber mantle and slate hearth housing a multifuel burner. Opening off the living room is the open plan kitchen and dining area designed with modern day living in mind with a sociable seating area and access to the rear of the house. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units under worksurfaces incorporating stainless steel sink unit, gas combi-boiler, 4 ring gas hob and oven below. Beyond the kitchen is the rear hallway with a separate W/C and the family bathroom which has recently been stylishly finished with fully tiled walls and bath with shower over. To the first floor is a master bedroom which is complemented by 2 further double bedrooms.
Outside
To the front of the property is a pillared entrance flanked by a lawned garden and mature hedge fronting the road. The rear is accessed through a 5-bar gate onto a large parking area beneath the west front. A profound feature of 1 Yew Tree Cottage is the extensive plot with wide side access and large rear garden which is predominantly laid to lawn with some mature soft fruit trees enclosed by tall mature hedging. The whole area extends to approximately 0.19 of an acre.
