House For Sale £650,000
Attractive Victorian house with beautiful gardens and a studio.
Description
Church View Cottage is a delightful, surprisingly spacious, early Victorian house with a beautiful garden and a studio.
The building is believed to date from the 1840s and was formerly two cottages, which have been combined and extended to create a wonderfully comfortable family home, while retaining many superb period features.
The property has an attractive red brick façade with Gault brick quoining and decoration, and a traditional pantile roof.
Internally, the accommodation flows exceptionally well, comprising elegantly proportioned, light-filled rooms with good ceiling height throughout.
The commodious kitchen/breakfast room is the heart of the house, with an underfloor heated, tiled floor and French windows leading to the terrace and garden.
The kitchen has an island with an induction hob, integrated double oven, integrated dishwasher and wooden work surfaces. Off the Kitchen is a boot room, with an external door, and a utility room.
To the front of the property, within the original part of the building, are the music room and sitting room. These two charming rooms both have wood burning stoves and exposed timbers.
Off the sitting room is a study, with French windows out to the garden, which leads through to a ground floor shower room.
The first floor consists of four double bedroom and the family bathroom. The spacious principal bedroom is filled with light from a west facing window and a large Velux window.
Church View has a fabulous private garden, with an expanse of lawn, an herbaceous border and a hedge; immediately to the rear of the house is a terrace, ideal for al fresco dining.
At the end of the garden is a vegetable garden and a studio.
There is parking for three cars.
