House For Sale £900,000
From its charming exterior, Thatchwell Cottage exudes all the character you would expect from a property that dates some 400 years. Yet, when visitors walk through it, not only do they marvel at its beautiful beams, inglenook fireplaces and brick floors, but they are also impressed by its stunning new kitchen, dining and family room, which is firmly rooted in the 21st century, explain owners Melanie and Jon. “The house is Grade II listed and so we did work with conservation officers when we wanted to create the new kitchen,” Jon says. “But they were very happy with our plans – in fact, their only stipulation was that we made it contemporary in style so that it offered contrast. They were very supportive.”
