OVERVIEW:

A multi-pane glazed door opens into a practical porch where there is plenty of room to store outdoor wear.

From here, a door welcomes you though to the spacious and sociable, dual aspect open-plan sitting/dining room with a weight and corded sash window to the front and cosy fireplace encompassing a painted wooden surround, tiled hearth and provision for a log-burning stove. Fitted display cabinetry in a charming pine finish - much in keeping with the age of the property - has been cleverly built into the alcoves and the below stairs area provides another useful storage recess. French doors ensure that the living space enjoys a relaxed relationship with the rear garden, bringing the leafiness of the outside, inside.

The adjacent kitchen has been refitted in a contemporary style, with handleless gloss wall and base cupboards in a neutral colourway, paired with smart Silstone quartz counters/ upstands and undercabinet lighting. Space is in situ for an American style fridge freezer (with convenient mains water supply for ice etc) and a dual fuel range style cooker (with fitted Rangemaster extractor canopy over), plus space/plumbing for both a dishwasher and washing machine. A Vaillant combi gas-fired boiler (installed in 2020) is neatly concealed and other features include a tall larder, undermounted stainless steel sink/mixer tap and ceramic tiled floor.

A lobby area to the rear provides additional useful storage space, together with a door to the garden and access through to a modern family bathroom, comprising a panelled bath with shower over and hinged glass screen, close-coupled WC and wall-hung Roca vanity console with basin and drawer storage. A co-ordinating Roca wall cupboard provides stylish additional storage for family essentials with a chrome heated towel warmer another thoughtful touch.

To the first floor, all three bedrooms are double-sized with a light and airy feel, practical laminate wood flooring and ample space to install wardrobes, as well as additional storage furniture. A hatch from the landing accesses the loft space, most of which is boarded for convenience.

Externally, the rear garden is a tranquil oasis; designed with minimal maintenance and maximum enjoyment in mind, this delightful haven blends stone paving with borders stocked with cottage planting, a greenhouse, large summerhouse and accompanying storage shed – both with power supply - and decked terrace which begs any onlooker to relax a while. A gate from the rear boundary offers useful access to a passageway running along the back of Railway Terrace.

Private parking for the cottage is located directly to the front.
