About this listing

Improved and thoughtfully extended by the current owners, this charming three-bedroom stone-built cottage offers considerably more than first meets the eye. Combining period character with well-considered modern additions, the property provides versatile and beautifully presented accommodation. The Property The live-in kitchen forms the heart of the home and is a wonderfully generous space, perfectly suited to both everyday family life and entertaining. The extension has created an impressive open-plan room, with distinct areas for cooking, dining and relaxing. A formal dining area is currently arranged around an eight-seater table, while a comfortable seating area provides the perfect place to unwind alongside the kitchen. Exposed oak beams add warmth and character, complementing the contemporary country aesthetic, while windows to the front and French doors opening onto the west-facing patio and garden ensure the room is filled with natural light and has a strong connection to the outside. The kitchen itself is beautifully appointed, featuring an electric Range Master cooker, bespoke-style cabinetry, a butchers-block island, integrated dishwasher, butler sink and wooden work surfaces. Generous proportions, period detailing and direct access to the garden combine to create a highly sociable and versatile space that is very much the centre of the home. The sitting room provides a more intimate and comfortable retreat, centred around a log burner set within the original part of the cottage. Exposed oak beams and wooden flooring enhance the room's character and creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. A further reception room, created as part of a further extension, offers excellent flexibility and could be used as a family room, playroom, study or additional sitting room, depending on the requirements of the new owners.
