Myrtle Cottage

This attractive double-fronted period house stands in a discreet position in the heart of the village and has been much improved by the current owners. As you step through the front door into the entrance hall, there is an immediate atmosphere of relaxation with light and bright rooms with a seamless blend of the original period detail and more contemporary styling to create an ideal family home with character and an easy lifestyle.

The ground floor has two separate reception rooms, a utility room, cloakroom and a fabulous open plan extended kitchen family room stepping out to the garden. The kitchen has been designed around the fabulous island which houses AV infrastructure for projecting film or sport onto the wall, making it a perfect room for entertaining. The island creates excellent storage solutions without breaking up the open feeling of the room where two sets of bi-folding doors step out onto the terrace overlooking the garden. There is a separate side entrance for family convenience. Upstairs, the main bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and there are four further bedrooms and the family bathroom arranged off the landing.

Outside, the house is entered through a five-bar gate onto a generous parking area with side vehicle access through to the rear garden. The back of the house, from the kitchen is a wonderful patio area, an ideal area for entertaining with family and friends. There is a separate double barn garage with home office above all set in generous grounds of just over 0.5 acre with the rear garden facing backing onto beautiful open fields beyond.
