House For Sale £800,000
Detached period house on the edge of the pretty village of Haddon
Description
Willowbrook Cottage is a detached period home which was originally three separate farm workers' cottages converted into a single dwelling in the 1980s. The attractive property is situated within pleasant gardens of around 0.5 acres, with a sweeping driveway and views over open countryside.
The accommodation is well proportioned throughout and offers flexibility for modern family living. The large windows give plenty of light and frame the lovely countryside views. The property offers excellent scope for further extension if desired (subject to obtaining the necessary consents). Presented in a modern, country style which is mostly neutral throughout, offering great scope for personalisation with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception areas. The layout is flexible and has the option of two reception rooms, plus a snug/study, making it ideal for family life. With more than 2190 sq ft across two floors, the house is a good size and has an airy feel.
The central entrance hall provides a welcoming first impression and leads to the sitting room with an impressive inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove. The separate dining room also with wood-burning stove leads to the kitchen and has French doors opening to the west facing terrace. The kitchen, which has space for a table for more informal family
meals, has an oil fired Aga, with separate induction hob, good storage, wooden worktops and tiled flooring with views over the fields beyond.
There is access from the kitchen to an adjoining utility room, and separate WC and a back door to the terrace. The double aspect study/snug offers flexibility for those working from home or as a children's playroom, and leads back to the dining room.
The staircase rises to the first floor landing of which the principal south facing bedroom has an en suite shower room and separate dressing room. Two further large doubles are front facing, along with bedroom four, share a family bathroom with tiled floor and three-piece suite, and shower over the bath.
Outside
The house is positioned near the northern boundary of its south facing garden which extend to approximately 0.5 acres. The gardens are pretty and dotted with a variety of mature trees including an impressive willow and a number of beech trees. Mostly laid to lawn and offers ample space for entertaining in the warmer months. The rear paved patio offers views over the fields across the northern boundary. To the front a wooden pergola and in built brick barbeque are a warm and inviting space, with access from the dining room. The sweeping gravel driveway provides ample off-street parking.
