GEORGIAN, SEMI-DETACHED, FOUR BED COTTAGE DISPLAYING MANY ORIGINAL FEATURES AND HAVING AN ADDITIONAL SELF-CONTAINED BUNGALOW ANNEX - VIEWINGS ESSENTIAL TO FULLY APPRECIATE THIS PROPERTY 

DESCRIPTION

Standing well back from the main carriageway and screened by a mature hedgerow and trees to the boundary, this architecturally impressive stone built, semi-detached cottage has undergone a huge transformation over the last 30 years or so and now provides accommodation set out on two levels which offers great versatility.  The original property is believed to date back to the 1700s and in the older part of the dwelling many features are still evident.  The more recent extension results in enhanced accommodation to the original property along with the bungalow annex, ideal for any purchaser with a dependent relative, independent teenager or indeed anyone wishing to run a business from home, as this space enjoys an independent means of entry, separate to the main dwelling.  Gas fired central heating is provided throughout, along with sealed unit double glazing and the accommodation provided in total extends to Entrance Vestibule, Lounge, Kitchen with open plan aspect to adjoining Dining Room, Study/Bedroom Four, and Ground floor Bathroom.  To the first floor there are three Bedrooms and a Shower Room, whilst the Bungalow Annex provides an Entrance Hall, Lounge/Dining Room, Breakfast Kitchen, Utility Room and Double Bedroom.
