House For Sale £650,000
* GUIDE PRICE £650,000 - £700,000 * Dating back to the 1700's 'September Cottage' wouldn't look out of place in an Ideal Home magazine and boasts one of the most beautiful garden outlooks this area has to offer. The accommodation is tastefully decorated & presented to an exceptional standard, combining traditional features with all the trappings and requirements of today's modern home. As you arrive at the property, double wrought iron gates lead to a gravel driveway which provides off road parking for multiple cars, and gives access to a covered carport area, garage and wood store. The front entrance door leads straight into a cosy sitting room with an impressive stone feature fireplace and it's in this room you'll really get a sense of the history that surrounds this building. The formal lounge basks in natural light and the traditional column radiator is another nod to the property's provenance. An inner hall leads to the rear lobby where instantly, the impressive landscape of the rear garden starts filtering through the windows. The dining kitchen is fitted with shaker style units complimented by pewter cup handles and granite work surfaces. There is ample space for a 4 person dining set and recesses for a range style cooker and American style fridge freezer. Just off the kitchen you'll find a home study with dual aspect access to the rear garden and a delightful enclosed courtyard, the perfect quiet spot to enjoy a lunch break whilst working from home. No family home would be complete without a utility room and ground floor WC, both of which you'll find off the rear lobby. On the first floor, the landing leads to the family bathroom and three double bedrooms, with the primary bedroom having an en suite shower room, fitted with a contemporary white 5 piece suite and mirrored wardrobes.
Moving on to the outside, the rear garden is a prominent selling feature of this home and we don't think there's an adjective in the English dictionary that can quite describe this ever changing outdoor scene. In the Summer you'll enjoy panoramic lush greenery, contrasted by blue skies, in the Autumn, the warm colours of the changing leaves will fuse perfectly with the late afternoon sunsets. It really is a sight to behold. The garden has been established over many years, almost a professional standard, and includes a beautifully maintained lawn complimented by a wide range of beds containing gunneras, hostas, hardy geraniums, alliums, phormiums, spring bulbs, different species of grasses, conifers and a magnificent Jurassic Tree Fern to name but a few. You can expect visits from robins, blackbirds, pheasants, partridges, ducks, woodpeckers, owls and buzzards and herds of deer can often be seen in the fields across from the cottage. Various patio areas allow you to take in multiple aspects of the garden and nestled away under the treeline, our sellers have created a Zen space where you are completely surrounded by nature and soothed by the trickle of the water running through a nearby brook.
