Virtual Tour

Mary’s Cottage is an attractive detached stone cottage, set back from the lane and positioned to take full advantage of its generous plot and impressive outlook. A long gated gravel driveway leads up to the property, providing substantial off-road parking for several vehicles. The cottage sits towards the upper part of the grounds, with lawned gardens extending in front and open countryside views beyond.

The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hall, where the character of the cottage is immediately apparent, with exposed stonework, timber beams and wooden flooring. The staircase rises to the first floor, with useful storage beneath, while doors lead off to the principal ground floor rooms.

To one side of the hall is the kitchen, fitted with a range of sage green shaker-style wall and base units, wood-effect work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. There is an inset oven and hob, space and plumbing for appliances and windows to two elevations, including a lovely outlook across the gardens and surrounding countryside.

The living room is a particularly impressive space, with a striking vaulted ceiling, substantial exposed roof timbers, roof lights, exposed stone detailing and wooden flooring. A multi-fuel burner provides an attractive focal point, complemented by radiators for everyday warmth. The room comfortably accommodates both sitting and dining areas, making it a sociable and flexible space. A door opens directly out to the garden and patio seating area, creating an easy connection between the indoor accommodation and outside space.

Also on the ground floor is a generous double bedroom, featuring exposed beams, exposed stonework and fitted storage. This room offers flexibility and could alternatively be used as a snug, dining room or occasional guest room, depending on a buyer’s requirements.

On the first floor, the second bedroom has a cosy cottage feel, with exposed timbers and a low-level window. Across the landing is the bathroom, fitted with a bath with shower attachment, WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

Outside, Mary’s Cottage enjoys a particularly attractive garden setting. A paved patio wraps around the cottage, creating several seating and entertaining areas from which to enjoy the sunny aspect, established planting and countryside views. Beyond the patio, the gardens are predominantly laid to lawn and gently slope away from the property, with mature hedging, trees, colourful planted borders and a timber garden outbuilding. A raised gravel seating terrace provides a further private spot to sit and enjoy the surroundings.
