## Description

If you are searching for a cottage rich in charm and character, Rose Cottage could be the perfect match. Believed to date in part from the 16th century, the property has been lovingly and sympathetically enhanced by the current owners over the past 40 years, including the restoration of original features such as the impressive inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and stonework, alongside the addition of a rear extension, now creating a wonderful dining room.

Unusually for a cottage of this age, the accommodation feels light and spacious, with well-proportioned rooms and good ceiling heights throughout. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a study (which could serve as a fourth bedroom) and the principal reception room, complemented by a wide staircase rising to the first floor. The sitting room is centred around a striking inglenook fireplace with an original bread oven and wood burning stove, and flows through to a second sitting room featuring an “Epping” stove (currently not in use). Beyond, the dining room enjoys glazed doors opening onto the garden from both sides, creating a wonderful connection to the outdoors.

The farmhouse-style kitchen is fitted with painted solid pine units and quarry tiled flooring, with a useful utility room beyond providing access to the garden, along with a ground floor shower room and additional storage.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a particularly special space, showcasing exposed A-frame beams and an original section of hazel wattle and daub. Two further double bedrooms are both generously sized, and are served by a family bathroom and separate shower room.

Outside
Rose Cottage enjoys beautifully established gardens extending to the front, side and rear, thoughtfully planted to create a wonderfully private setting. A charming seating area with ornamental pond, a lawn perfect for relaxing or play, and mature planted borders combine to create a truly idyllic outdoor space.

Just off the dining room, a delightful courtyard terrace provides the perfect spot to enjoy the later sunshine, while a useful timber shed offers additional storage (and potential for improvement). To the side of the cottage, a gravelled parking area provides off-road parking for two vehicles
