Property description

A four bedroom semi detached cottage with mature gardens, off street parking and a tandem garage, within walking distance of village amenities.

Formerly two cottages built in the early 19th century, the property has been converted into a single dwelling which retains character features throughout including timbers and wrought iron door furnishings. The property now has 1,914 sq. ft. of accommodation including a reception hall which has oak flooring and a feature fireplace. The kitchen leads through to the breakfast room and the dining room has a door to the dual aspect 23 ft. 7 sitting room which has a gas fired stove. The second floor has four bedrooms, a bathroom and a shower room which are accessed via two separate staircases. The house called Charlotte's Yard is located on a footpath which is between numbers 15 and 25 North Street and gives access to numbers 17 and 21. A gravel driveway off North Street provides parking and leads to the tandem garage which has a door at the rear to the garden.

Kitchen

The Howden's kitchen has a comprehensive range of fitted units with wooden work surfaces incorporating a stainless steel sink and drainer with a mixer tap. Built-in appliances include an under the counter fridge and freezer, an electric oven and a four ring gas hob. Laminate flooring continues through to the breakfast room which has space for a table and chairs and has double glazed French doors to a patio seating area in the garden.

Outside

The property is approached along a gravel footpath which leads to the front garden which has a stepping stone path to the front door. Gardens to the front and side of the house are laid to lawn with established shrubs, small trees, and flower beds. There is a patio with a circular design, an ornamental pond, raised vegetable beds, outside lighting and a tap.
