House For Sale £495,000
Wonderful 17th century detached house standing within delightful gardens with separate guest annexe in a village lane setting.
With origins dating back to the 17th century and built of traditional timber frame construction beneath a tiled roof, this enchanting home is listed Grade II as being of specific architectural or historical interest.
In more recent years, the property has been the subject of further improvement and updating whilst retaining a wealth of characteristics one would associate with a home of its era including many exposed timbers and fine period fireplaces.
This much loved home is full of charm and personality and the well-presented accommodation currently in brief comprises of; attractive arched entrance door opening to an entrance hall, currently used as a study with door leading to a cloakroom and to the sitting room, a charming reception with many exposed timbers, fine fireplace and windows enjoying views to the gardens. Opening to the side of the fireplace leads to a family room area, open to the kitchen/dining room and creating a lovely light and airy feel, whilst displaying original features including exposed timbers, fireplace with large Bressumer beam and stove, stairs off to first floor and window overlooking gardens.
The kitchen area is fitted with a traditional range of units enhanced by built-in appliances, attractive floor and wall tiling, stable door to garden and to a large utility/boot room with an excellent range of built-in cupboards and door to gardens. Adjoining the sitting room is a charming garden room enjoying views of the gardens.
On the first floor is a landing with many exposed timbers including evidence of an original mullion window. The landing leads to the three comfortable bedrooms (two with built-in wardrobe cupboards), en-suite shower (serving two bedrooms) and a bathroom completes the accommodation.
Outside - To the front are areas of gardens and a driveway providing vehicle parking and access to a garage/workshop. Gated access leads to the rear gardens. The gardens are a wonderful feature of Priory Cottage, beautifully maintained and providing the occupants with a high degree of privacy and seclusion. The gardens are laid predominantly to lawn and include an abundance of trees, flowering plants and shrubs. A particular feature is the more recently built annexe / studio, ideal as a garden office with power, lighting, veranda and en-suite shower facility. A brick terrace provides a lovely outdoor area for entertaining whilst enjoying views across the gardens.
