Welcome to this quaint and beautifully presented cottage offering a characterful feel that caters perfectly to a modern lifestyle. From the attractive stone-flagged courtyard and cosy reception with multi-fuel burner to the spacious dining kitchen, every space provides a warm and welcoming feel. Upstairs, two bedrooms are served by a three-piece bathroom, whilst the private rear garden provides a peaceful retreat and includes a working from home pod with Upvc windows. With excellent, village central amenities close by and parking to the front of the property, this property offers a wonderful place to call home.
Home sweet home…
Approached via a charming white picket fence, No. 227 immediately sets the tone with its stone-flagged courtyard garden, creating a delightful first impression. The front door opens into a welcoming entrance porch, featuring a front-facing window, a wall light and decoratively tiled flooring. From here, a latched oak door leads through to the cosy reception room.
Cosy inside…
Warm and inviting, the reception room is finished with oak flooring and benefits from a front-facing window, pendant lighting and a television point. The focal point of the room is the multi-fuel burner, beautifully framed by an exposed brick surround, stone hearth and oak mantel beam, creating a wonderfully homely atmosphere.
To the rear, the property opens into a spacious dining kitchen, offering ample room for both dining and relaxed entertaining. Stone flooring continues throughout, whilst this cottage-style kitchen is fitted with cream base units complemented by sage green wall cabinets, solid wood worktops and a classic white tiled splashback. Thoughtfully appointed, it includes a Rangemaster cooker with hob, a Belfast porcelain sink with lever-style mixer tap, integrated dishwasher, plumbing for an automatic washing machine and enjoys views over the garden through both a rear window and French doors.
And so, to bed…
A spindle staircase rises to the first floor, with useful storage neatly tucked beneath. The loft can be accessed from the landing area which is fully boarded, insulated and accessed via a hatch with integrated ladder.
The principal bedroom provides a peaceful retreat, generously proportioned and filled with natural light from two front-facing windows. Character features include a cast-iron fireplace, column radiator, fitted wardrobes and shelving, while a charming stained-glass feature window adds further personality and overlooks the landing.
The second bedroom, currently utilised as a nursery, is a delightful room with fitted wardrobes spanning one wall and a rear-facing window.
Serving both bedrooms is a contemporary, traditional-style family bathroom. Decoratively tiled flooring and elegant wall panelling to dado height create a tasteful backdrop for the three-piece suite, which comprises a freestanding clawfoot bath with telephone-style hand shower and rainfall shower above, a vanity wash hand basin, close-coupled w.c. and graphite grey heated towel rail.
Tangled in green…
Outside, the charming rear garden provides a private and tranquil setting. A paved patio area offers the perfect space for outdoor dining with an outdoor tap, while steps lead up to a slightly elevated lawn. Here, a timber outbuilding presents the perfect ‘working from home’ spot, fully insulated with uPVC windows. Mature shrubs, established planting and high timber fencing frame the garden, creating a wonderfully secluded and verdant retreat.
Round and about…
