House For Sale £385,000
Description
Despite its characterful old-world appearance ‘Laburnum Cottage’ is a relatively new home having been constructed in an attractive period style to replicate its neighbouring properties just some 30 years ago.
Set behind a private block paved and gravelled driveway, there is a neat box hedge to one side and to the other an original stone wall. A beautiful ledged and braced front door leads you into the entrance hallway which immediately sets the tone with its rich oak effect laminate floor and traditional styled staircase rising to the first floor, with storage underneath. A handy cloakroom can be found to the right of the hallway whilst cottage styled panelled doors lead to the further ground floor rooms. The kitchen is set to the front of the house and features traditional farmhouse styled units with a roll edged countertop and provision for a dishwasher and fridge freezer, along with an integrated double oven and gas stove, subtle timber beams to the ceiling add a touch of charm. Beyond the kitchen an internal door leads into a spacious dining room which has a pedestrian door to the side and a large picture window to the rear. A heavy timber beam to the ceiling adds atmosphere to the room, and there is plenty of space for a family sized dining table.
The sitting room is another wonderfully characterful room with reclaimed timber beams to the ceiling and an exposed stone wall to the rear with French doors flowing out to the garden. This charming dual aspect room has a superb inglenook styled fireplace with a cast iron wood burner and stone hearth. Soft neutral decoration enhances the room and give it a homely, peaceful ambience.
Moving onto the first floor, you will find three bedrooms (Master en-suite) and the family bathroom all arranged off the light filled first floor landing. The Master bedroom, which is set to the front of the house benefits from fitted wardrobes and a chic en-suite shower room with a cool light tunnel adding extra natural light. The two further bedrooms are positioned to the rear of the house and enjoy a beautiful outlook over the rear garden. Completing the first-floor accommodation is the family bathroom which features a modern three-piece white suite with fully tiled splashbacks and tiled floor.
Outside the property is blessed with a much larger than expected rear garden which enjoys not only excellent privacy but also thoughtful landscaping which has created an enchanting space packed with mature trees, shrubs, and borders, along with a large patio dining area, rose-packed pergola, a large garden shed and plenty of level lawn.
Laburnum Cottage benefits from off street parking for as many as two vehicles to the front, gas central heating, being within walking distance to many local amenities and the huge benefit of no onward chain.
