A quirky renovated cottage which has been executed to a high standard by its current owner. This 4 bedroom semi-detached cottage has 3 public rooms, dining kitchen, en-suite shower room, wc on the ground floor and a modern family bathroom. This cottage has been carefully renovated and maintains much of its charm with exposed beamed ceilings, stone feature walls with an inglenook style fireplace with a wood-burning stove, country-style kitchen with an oil Rayburn cooker and a stable door entrance. The study / public room 3 has patio doors out to the parking area and Palladian-style windows and a flat roof which has been cleverly made into a rooftop terrace. This sizable family home also benefits from oil fired central heating, double glazing, quality finishes and a large workspace / workshop area. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the space this deceiving property has to offer.
