About this listing

An absolutely delightful unlisted semi-rural cottage, re-thatched in 2026, and occupying a wonderful south and west facing plot, just on the outskirts of Pebmarsh. As one would expect, the property radiates charm and character, with brick floors, exposed oak framing, a magnificent handmade ESSE range cooker and of course the beautiful long straw roof. The secluded plot is surprisingly well proportioned, and is bisected by an incredibly useful parking and garaging area, which also features a large workshop and secure gated parking. The immediate environs are that of established woodland and arable land, with Pebmarsh village and the Kings Head pub being located with one kilometre, for convenience. A framed and braced entrance door opens to a delightfully atmospheric reception hall, or vestibule which could also be called upon as a dining room. Stairs rise to the first floor, and a doorway allows access to the bath and shower room. The brick floor, which is real feature of this room extends through to the sitting room and a fireplace houses the oil-fired boiler. The sitting room features a deep circular bay overlooking the garden, and an impressive redbrick fireplace creates the focal point, inset to which there is a Calor gas fed wood burner style stove. The brick floor continues through to the kitchen, which incorporates a dining area, and features solid timber cabinets and cupboards in keeping with the ethos of the building. The counter tops are in quartz and incorporate a fluted drainer and Butler style enamel sink. The centre piece of the kitchen is a wonderful ESSE cooking range in blue, which oil fed, and complimentary tiling completes a delightful kitchen.
