Description: Half Acre cottage is a former stone farmhouse which has been the subject of extensive restoration and building works to create a large and versatile family home. The original house comprises three reception rooms including a newly constructed kitchen/dining room with a natural roof and bi-fold doors to the east and south side overlooking the large and private garden. A long former barn has been skillfully converted and creates the new entrance to the house with a separate lobby and cloakroom. Beyond this is a large family room with a maximum ceiling height of 17'6" to the apex of the roof and with an additional shower room, space for a kitchenette and separate staircases to two further double bedrooms. In addition to this is a separate store which can be converted to provide additional accommodation or used as a work room etc. The layout of the accommodation lends itself to creating a self-contained annexe, work space or an Air B&B.
The property benefits from a new gas fired central heating system with underfloor heading to the family room, shower room and cloakroom. Plans are available to the proposed kitchen which could either be fitted within the purchase price by the seller within a specified budget or by the purchaser in which case the price would be discounted accordingly. There is ample parking to the side of the house. The gardens incorporate lawns, vegetable garden and a greenhouse all of which is enclosed by mature trees and hedging affording a good degree of privacy.
