Step into this delightful cottage and feel instantly at home. The welcoming hallway leads to a well-equipped kitchen perfect for preparing a delicious family breakfast or testing your culinary skills. Adjoining the kitchen is a very useful utility room, which accommodates a separate WC. The very cosy front living room offers a spacious corner sofa just waiting for you to curl up on. With the wood burner lit and a good film on the TV/DVD player, perhaps enjoying a friendly game of cards or a competitive board game, or even simply reading a book from the shelf, this room provides all you need to unwind and relax. The property also benefits from a lounge/diner with formal dining table to celebrate that special occasion at, a comfortable sofa and armchair on which to while away the evening in front of the TV. On sunnier days, retreat to the conservatory, where comfortable seating and garden views provide the perfect spot to relax with a good book or a morning coffee. When it’s time to rest, the cottage offers four beautifully appointed bedrooms. A single room on the ground floor (up two steps from the hall) with pretty views over the village green and Maypole. Heading further up the stairs to the first floor you arrive at the spacious landing with a comfy armchair and a well-stocked bookshelf. There is a twin bedroom with lovely views over the green, Maypole and 12th century church. The third bedroom is a spacious king-size with convenient en-suite bathroom with bath, separate shower and WC. The final bedroom is a pretty double with the benefit of its own tidy washbasin. Completing the first floor is the family bathroom which too offers a bath, separate shower and WC.
Outside, you'll find a large private garden with a mature lawn and offering plenty of space for the whole family to play, relax, and enjoy the fresh air. For extra fun, the garage has been transformed into a games room, complete with a pool table and football table, perfect for some friendly competition.
