Description

Field Cottage is a detached property of 16th century origins with newer additions, situated at the end of a private drive encompassed by private gardens of about an acre. The current owners have sympathetically extended and renovated the property in 2016 to offer fantastic open plan ground floor living space with two further reception rooms.

The cottage is ready to move into with a beautiful contemporary kitchen/family/dining room with underfloor heating and bifold doors leading out onto the garden terrace. A breakfast bar offers seating for guests with quality fixtures and fittings including, AEG steam ovens, granite worktops, Quooker hot top and larder cupboard. There is space for a dining room table and chairs and further sofa seating to enable the stunning views to be appreciated from the inside out!

The utility room is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen with access to the rear terrace.

The main entrance and hallway form part of a more recent extension to the original cottage. A striking oak staircase leads to the upper floor, while on the ground level, a WC and access to the sitting room create a natural flow through the house. The sitting room is furnished with character over head beams and has a fireplace with wood burning stove, creating a cosy space for winter evenings. This leads through to the study which has a bespoke purpose-built desk unit and is ideal for those working from home. There is further useful storage room beyond the study.

On the first floor are three bedrooms. The principal bedroom is situated gable end onto the garden and has fully glazed floor to ceiling windows overlooking the gardens and countryside beyond. There is a dressing room area with fitted drawers and hanging space, and a separate en suite shower room.

Bedroom two is a generous double with free standing bath and washing facilities, and bedroom three has views to the rear garden with en suite shower room.

The property is approached via a tree lined gravel drive with metal gates, which gives it a very private secluded feeling.

There is a one bedroom annex with double bedroom, bathroom, open plan kitchen, living, dining area with patio and parking. This is currently let out on a holiday short term let basis via Airbnb. However it could be used for multigenerational living.

There is a stable block with two stables (which could be converted, subject to planning) and a single garage with storage space above, accompanied by a double carport.

The wrap around gardens are intertwined with the lovely terrace that can be accessed from all sides of the property, and which benefits from a useful outdoor kitchen with BBQ, work surfaces and storage space. There are well stocked borders with mature trees and shrubs, and plenty of open lawn to enjoy.
