Description

Tucked away in the heart of the ever-popular estuary village of Bishopsteington, lies this beauty of a period cottage. Bursting full of charm and character, and having gone through a full renovation in recent years, this place is perfect for anyone wanting to live in a fantastic location and not lift a paintbrush.

With its attractive red brick façade, it looks very much the classic cottage from the front. Step inside and you will no doubt love the penny entrance floor! The sitting room and dining room is one large open plan space. The sitting room to the front of the property with an attractive electric inset wood burner with oak mantle and slate hearth. The dining room over looks the rear and has two built in storage cupboards and a large understairs cupboard. A handful of stairs lead you up to the kitchen which overlooks and provides the assess into the rear garden. The kitchen has been cleverly designed and offers an integrated electric oven, inset induction hob and an extractor over. There is space for a washing machine and fridge/freezer.
On the first floor of the cottage, you will find two really good-sized double bedrooms. Bedroom one overlooks the front of the property, boasting two windows to let the daylight stream in, and bedroom two overlooks the rear garden. The family bathroom is surprisingly large and has a trendy finish. It comfortably fits a curved edge bath, corner shower, WC and wash hand basin. We love the Victorian style heated towel rail too.
A further staircase leads up to a well-designed loft conversion which makes a perfect kid’s bedroom or home office. Again, trendy décor with reclaimed timber wall panelling and feature wallpaper. Two Velux windows allow plenty of light into the room, and there are handy eave storage cupboards too.

The courtyard garden is over two levels and a real suntrap. The lower section of courtyard has a handy built in storage shed. The upper section has an attractive flower boarder and plenty of space for a dining set and BBQ.
