Wisteria Cottage

Swallows & Amazons or Wind In The Willows? The choice is yours when describing the fairy tale setting of this truly exceptional family home. The delightful canal side setting of Tamhorn is found betwixt the popular villages of Whittington and Elford and is surrounded by open farmland, yet still only a pleasant towpath stroll away from all the amenities found at Whittington's village centre. Wisteria Cottage provides a 'complete package' experience with the house itself extending to nearly 2,000 square feet of beautifully presented accommodation, flooded with natural light and showcasing an attractive blend of modern design with the inherent charm of the building. Creating a stylish, yet warm, family home. The ground floor boasts an impressive dining hallway, living room, study/sitting room, dining kitchen, boot room, utility and guest cloakroom. The first floor is equally impressive with two bedroom suites boasting en suite shower rooms, and two further bedrooms sharing the family bathroom. The real treat though, lies outside, with one of the largest formal gardens we have seen with a cottage of this size, rolling down to a serene canal winding draped in weeping willows. Extending to 1.75 acres and providing expansive shaped lawns, vast patio areas with covered seating, bountiful vegetable garden and double stable block and greenhouses. The plot also provides extensive private driveway parking, a detached double garage and secluded hard standing for motorhome or horse box. This attractive package is completed with a separate fenced paddock extending to 1.25 acres.

We cannot stress how important a viewing of this thoroughly impressive home is, to fully appreciate its hypnotic setting and the wonderful opportunity on offer.

WE LOVE THIS HOUSE...

“For its flexibility and adaptability. It keeps us warm in winter yet cool in the summer, it is a party house but also a much loved cosy family home. It gives privacy but not isolation and it is part of a small close and friendly community. We waited ten years to buy it and have loved it for a further ten …….”
