This charming Victorian terraced cottage enjoys a pleasant position on the edge of this highly sought-after village benefitting from an exceptional primary school and main line train station with the community allotments and lovely countryside walks near-by. The property has been extended and improved over the years yet retains many of its original features. The ground floor accommodation comprises an entrance porch to a sitting room with ornamental fireplace, a cosy snug area with a wood- burning stove. The dining room boasts a mono-pitched roof with two large Velux windows and French doors out to the garden. The recently renovated kitchen is fitted with attractive modern cabinets, oak work surfaces with an inset ceramic sink with mixer tap and drainer and space for a washing machine, fridge freezer and a slimline dishwasher.
Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a shower bath and a storage cupboard housing a wall mounted gas-fired central heating boiler.
Outside, there is a low maintenance front garden laid mainly to shingle and enclosed by a picket fence. The rear garden is designed with ease of maintenance in mind and consists of a paved area and flowerbeds, overlooking a pretty stream. A second garden, which measures approximately 0.15 acres, is laid mainly to lawn with flower and shrub borders and beds, mature trees and bushes, fruit trees and bushes, a pond, garden store/shed and a greenhouse. Both gardens enjoys excellent levels of privacy and seclusion.
