Its country cottage exterior is complemented by the warm, welcoming interior with the cottage having been sympathetically updated and redecorated throughout.
To the front of the property is a stone wall with a gate opening to the front Garden. Though there is a front door you'll probably head round to the side of the cottage and go in through the stable door into the hall which has an open cupboard alcove for your boots and coats, and a door to the Guest Cloakroom.
A part-glazed door opens to the Kitchen which has modern cream Shaker-style units with wood worktops, integrated oven with electric hob with extractor fan over, understairs pantry, quarry tiled floor, ceiling spots and a lovely view out over the rear Garden.
The Lounge is a lovely, warm and cozy room, with a multi-fuel stove set in a brick fire surround with oak mantle, and a bow window to the front of the property. Off the Lounge is the Dining Room with dual-aspect windows, and this would also make an excellent hobby room or children's play room.
Heading to the first floor and Bedroom One is a lovely double room overlooking the front Garden, with a bespoke built-in wardrobe and matching chest of drawers. Bedroom Two is another double room and completing the accommodation is the Shower Room with a double shower, vanity unit housing the WC and wash hand basin, heated towel rail radiator and airing cupboard housing the hot water tank.
The 0.14 acre Garden wraps around three sides of the cottage. To the front is a block paved courtyard with a path and leading round to the rear Garden. The garden is mainly set out as herbaceous and evergreen borders at different levels, with the forest treeline beyond, patio seating area, green house, brick shed, log store and timber shed all included in the sale.
Parking is currently in the lane directly in front of the cottage, with no passing traffic as the lane becomes a foot path just after the cottage boundary.
This lovely cottage really does need viewing to appreciate all it has to offer - so please call the team at our Market Drayton office to arrange your viewing.
