Description
A CHARMING PERIOD GRADE II LISTED COTTAGE, IN NEED OF FURTHER UPDATING WITH ENCHANTING GARDENS AND SEPARATE COACH HOUSE

The launch of The Old Bakehouse to the market offers purchasers the first opportunity to acquire the cottage in over 47 years, with its strong links to the village community and its important Grade II Listed status. The property is set back from the road and enjoys a private approach through walled gardens to a courtyard with a useful separate coach house offering a variety of potential uses.

Retaining many of its period features, this charming cottage was formerly The Old Bakehouse for the village with bricks from the furnace currently featuring as a backdrop to the fireplace in the sitting room. The long straw thatch was completely redone in 2018, and the property offers purchasers an ideal opportunity to improve to their own styles. The property is approached through an entrance porch with cloakroom off, the sitting room is dual aspect with a feature fireplace with timber mantel above, ceiling timbers and open staircase leading to the first floor. Under the stairs a door leads to the study/family room with a multi paned window overlooking the garden. The dining room is of dual aspect with open access leading to the kitchen with a range of eye and level cupboards, wall mounted gas fired boiler and door to the gardens.

To the first floor are three good size bedrooms and house bathroom with a further open tread staircase from the landing up to the superb, vaulted attic room which is ideal for further conversion (subject to the appropriate contents) having exposed A frames and timber beams.

OUTSIDE

The property is approached through a five bar gate via a tarmac driveway leading to off road parking for several vehicles. The garden is predominantly laying to the side having a westerly aspect with various mature trees, flower and shrub borders and dappled lawned areas. The separate coach house is a particular feature with a range of ground floor barns with access through to a covered staircase to the first floor, currently used as snooker room. The coach house further can be renovated to suit particular needs.

“TIGS”

Included in the sale is the adoption of “Tigs”, a loving family cat that has been in residence for over 10 years who unfortunately can’t be re homed and is looking for a loving family to adopt her if possible.
