Gardener’s Cottage is a delightful and beautifully maintained example of Victorian architecture. With its attractive double-fronted red brick façade, the home exudes warmth and character from the first glance.
Stepping inside, you are welcomed by a central hallway with two elegant reception rooms positioned on either side. The sitting room is filled with natural light, from the front facing bay window and double windows to the side elevation. Original wooden floorboards throughout the room add warmth and character, alongside a distinctive double-fronted wood-burning stove that sits between the sitting room and kitchen—perfect for creating a cosy atmosphere on cooler evenings.
A thoughtfully designed opening in the dividing wall introduces a sense of flow and space, making the ground floor feel connected, ideal for contemporary living. The dining room, also featuring a characterful front bay, currently serving as a music room, it would easily adapt as a home office or formal dining space.
At the back of the property, the kitchen is a generous and functional space, offering extensive built-in storage and room for a large dining table. It also shares the central wood-burning stove, providing a warm and inviting spot for entertaining. Broad sliding doors to the patio, allow the space to become an indoor/outdoor entertaining area. A cloakroom with utility area offers a convenient place to tuck away laundry, while the rear hallway accommodates coats, boots, and countryside essentials after a day outdoors.
A wide staircase leads to three well-sized double bedrooms; each thoughtfully designed with discreet storage and picturesque views across both Church Lane and the garden. The principal bedroom, overlooking the rear, has approved planning permission for a Juliet balcony, creating an idyllic setting overlooking St Margaret of Scotland’s Church. A stylish family bathroom serves the upper floor.
The garden is both spacious and enclosed, featuring level lawns, a large storage shed, and a charming, covered patio—perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. Planning permission is in place to extend the kitchen into this area, offering the opportunity to create a stunning open-plan kitchen/living space.
A private driveway offers ample parking for several vehicles, completing this character-filled and versatile home.
