  • Stylishly well appointed accommodation

Church Cottage is a period single storey house of great charm and elegant rooms and sits adjacent to St Mary's & St James' Church.

The Dwelling

Church Cottage is an unlisted period cottage, built of local stone under a Haysom Purbeck stone tiled roof. The house has been stylishly refurbished and has lovely high ceilings to give great volume space. The sitting room has wide oak floor boards and a stone fireplace with a wood burning stove. Both bedrooms have well appointed en suites and built in wardrobes.

Accommodation

Highly practical accommodation gives en suites to both bedrooms with the living areas being well proportioned and the kitchen has an excellent range of wall and floor units with island and an Raeburn. This leads to the sitting room and views towards the garden. The garage is set up as a workshop and has scope for potential improvement. Refer to floor plan.

Outside

The low maintenance enclosed garden emanates from the reception room. The patio area can be loosely described as a cloister style area towards more extensive garden beyond and with a village gate to the side for separate access if required.

Parking is designated at the top of the property adjacent to the garage.
