Full description

Henry Adams Lettings are delighted to present to the market this beautifully extended four-bedroom farm cottage, tucked away along a shared private driveway in one of the area's most sought-after semi-rural settings. This rare and characterful home offers a unique opportunity that must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Generous in scale and bathed in natural light, the accommodation is arranged over two floors and provides exceptional flexibility for modern family living.

On arrival, a spacious entrance hall sets the tone, leading through to an open-plan study area at the rear. The heart of the home is the impressive country-style kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with bespoke floor units and complemented by a walk-in larder. A feature of this space is the electric AGA, which adds both charm and practicality, alongside modern conveniences such as a built-in dishwasher. A separate utility room further enhances the property's functionality.

The living spaces are warm and inviting, including a cosy sitting room with a striking fireplace and an additional reception room currently used as a playroom. Two well-proportioned bedrooms and a beautifully appointed family bathroom complete the ground floor, with these versatile rooms easily serving as home offices or guest accommodation depending on the requirements.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two spacious double bedrooms, both enjoying dual-aspect views over the gardens and surrounding countryside. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious en-suite bathroom, finished to a high standard and featuring a roll-top bath.
