INTRODUCTION
Osgoodby Cottage enjoys a truly spectacular setting tucked away close to the village of Kilburn and commands the most fabulous 360 degree views. During the current vendors ownership they have transformed the original ‘cottage’ into a large five bedroom family home. They have added a sitting room and study to one end and a leisure area to the other with swimming pool and sauna (flanked to one side by bifolding doors to ‘let the outside in’!)
Without doubt the extensions and alterations both inside and outside have significantly enhanced this property to make the most of its very special location. The accommodation is arranged over two floors with all of the rooms taking in the views. On the ground floor, the bespoke dining kitchen has been well thought out with an AGA as well as other appliances, a large island and spacious dining area (with a view in to the swimming pool and beyond) and door leading out on to the front terrace. There is a large utility and shower/ cloakroom which leads into the swimming pool – this area is a leisure haven and thanks to the ‘disappearing walls’ it can in essence be an indoor or outdoor pool!. On the ground floor there is a dining room, large sitting room with log burner and a study with doors opening out onto the garden.
The beautiful oak stairs lead up to the first floor which is made up of five generous bedrooms. The principal bedroom suite has a dressing room, plenty of storage and a huge bathroom with walk in shower and ‘double bath’ along with his and her sinks. The first guest bedroom has a ‘quirky ‘outside ‘bathroom’ on a balcony leading from the shower room –the perfect place to relax and soak up the stunning views. At the other end of the house is a guest bedroom with ensuite as well as two further double bedrooms and fantastic house bathroom.
In addition to the main accommodation provided in the house is a very useful one bedroom annexe / guest suite, brilliant home office plus the expected garaging, car ports and storage.
The outstanding attribute of Osgoodby Cottage though is its position and views. The drive sweeps along the hillside into a gravelled parking area with stabling to one side. You are then drawn to the views all around you, which are breath taking and glorious.
The current owners have transformed the grounds and although they are mostly laid to lawn they have added perfect entertaining areas around the house to make the most of every aspect. There is a breeze house with log burner for the colder nights and a sunken decking area with hot tub for the summer days and evenings. Adjacent to the pool area is a BBQ area and covered gym as well as more room for alfresco dining.
