The Property
Rock Cottage is a beautifully presented 17th century listed cottage with coursed sandstone
elevations and casement windows under a
part thatched roof (being redressed in 2024).
Located in a sought-after and historic village
with easy access to a wide range of amenities,
the property offers versatile accommodation
comprising characterful and well thought out
spaces. The multi-aspect 17 ft. reception room
with its stairway and store cupboard provides a
pleasing welcome into the home, with a brickbuilt fireplace with timber mantle, ceiling beams
and textured walls. This flows naturally through
to a rear porch opening to the garden, alongside
which is a storage space and a shower room
with a butler sink and walk-in shower.
Completing the floor is a luxury bespoke fitted
kitchen also opening directly to the southwesterly facing garden, comprising a range of attractive wood and iron hinged wall and base cabinetry with thick wooden worksurfaces, a two-oven cream electric AGA range and hob, a butler sink and ample space for appliances.
The first floor is a sizeable 19 ft. vaulted attic
space with exposed gable apexes, oak trusses
and brickwork. Much of this space is dominated
by the tranquil dual-aspect bedroom space which also benefits from a corresponding built in wardrobe and a freestanding clawfoot rolltop
bathtub.

bordered by over 180ft of handmade railings,
complete with a raised bed kitchen garden,
