House For Sale £650,000
The Cottage is a quintessential Grade ll listed thatched cottage, situated on the green in the sought after village of Arnesby. Known to date back to pre 1580, it is believed this beautiful cruck framed dwelling was sympathetically extended in the 60’s, whilst the thatched roof was replaced with Norfolk reed circa 2014. The property has been well maintained throughout and the established grounds extend to approximately .33 ac.
The entrance hallway is situated in the newer part of the property and entered via a panelled Oak door. A quarry tiled floor runs throughout and leading from the hallway is a ground floor shower room and WC. The extension also provides a generous triple aspect lounge that is centred around a stunning Minster stone fireplace, whilst two sets of French doors lead out to the garden.
The original Oak front door leads to the older part of the cottage where you will find a good size dining hall with an inglenook fire and beamed ceiling. There is also a cosy, dual aspect snug with an attractive brick fireplace and beamed ceiling. The dining kitchen has been fitted with a range of cream shaker style base and eye level units with wooden worktops over and includes an AGA cooker, and space for a range of appliances. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a charming garden room that enjoys views over the garden.
An Oak staircase leads to a large semi-galleried landing which showcases the wooden structure of the property and original Oak floorboards. A secondary landing with two generous storage cupboards provides access to a bathroom and separate WC, and leads to the delightful master bedroom which is dual aspect and benefits from fitted wardrobes.
There are two further dual aspect double bedrooms that are located in the original part of the cottage and have exposed beams and Oak floors.
The established gardens are a particular feature of the property and extend to approximately .33 ac. The garden lies primarily to the side and rear of the property and includes a formal garden with a large gently sloping lawn and established borders. This part of the garden also features a well stocked island bed, a thatched well and a former coach house/stable block that can be accessed via a five-bar gate. An archway leads through to a former vegetable garden that accommodates the oil tank and a timber shed. The gardens are flanked by mature hedging and trees which provide a good degree of privacy and provide a delightful backdrop to this charming property.
