Ivy Cottage has been lovingly refurbished throughout to create aesthetically pleasing living spaces finished in a clean, neutral colour palette complementing the wooden beams, vaulted ceilings, inglenook fireplace and exposed stonework. Beautiful, Karndean, wood-effect flooring, over underfloor heating, runs through the hall and across the open-plan kitchen/dining/living area which is at the heart of this home. The kitchen is fitted with a range of sleek wall and base units topped with granite quartz worksurfaces, with integrated NEFF appliances and a large central island with hob and breakfast bar. There is ample room for a large dining table and comfortable seating, creating a relaxed and sociable entertaining space. In warmer summer months, bifold doors open to extend this sociable space out onto the terrace where there is an outdoor bar. There is plenty of extra storage and space for coats and boots in the utility room which accesses the terrace and adjoins the kitchen, and where there is also a WC and shower room.
An open fire set in a stunning inglenook fireplace in the sitting room, provides a cosy retreat. Light floods into this room on three sides and French doors open to the garden. Two staircases rise up from a central point to either side of the cottage, creating a feature of the entrance hall.
All the bedrooms are on the first floor, each with their own unique style and character, including vaulted beamed ceilings in three of them. One staircase leads to the principal bedroom, with an ensuite shower room and a wall of fitted wardrobes, and to two other double bedrooms which share a contemporary family bathroom with independent bath and shower, WC and vanity unit with wash-hand-basin. There are two further double bedrooms on the other side of the cottage which share a WC with wash-hand basin.
Outside, an extensive shingle driveway offers plenty of parking and links the cottage to the double garage which has a useful studio upstairs. The gardens have been landscaped on three sides of the property to provide level lawns interspersed with paved seating areas to make the most of the sun.
