The property

Vendor's viewpoint- " when we bought the property, we fell in love with it. Curved walls, exposed beams, and original wooden floors. The beautiful period features that cannot be mirrored in modern properties.”

As you walk along the side path towards the property you will have a feeling of being within a Beatrix Potter novel. Magical English gardens filled with attractive perennial plants, colourful roses, and decorative shrubs.

The property is aesthetically pleasing. The outside of the cottage is painted in fresh white, with climbing roses which flower within the spring and early summer months.  On arrival you will be greeted by the French blue painted front wooden door, perfectly complementing the wooden framed latch windows.

Inside, the property is immaculately presented, decorated with Farrow and Ball colours and with contemporary design. Both the past and current owners have used local workmen with exemplary craftmanship to ensure the original characteristics have been maintained.
