Property description

A five bedroom detached property with gated driveway, a garage and enclosed gardens backing onto open countryside in a village location.

Folly Cottage extends to approximately 2,300 sq. ft. with accommodation arranged over two floors including, on the ground floor a reception hall, cloakroom, sitting room, garden room and dining room leading into the kitchen/breakfast room. There is a utility room which is attached to the garage. Stairs from the reception hall access a landing leading to the five bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, a first floor study, and a separate shower room and a bathroom. School lane is a 'no through road'; Folly Cottage has a gated gravelled driveway for four cars in additional to the integral garage which has power and lighting and houses the hot water cylinder. There is a connecting door to a utility room. The front garden is laid to lawn and we are advised that there is a covered well under the lawn. A gated walkway leads through to the rear garden with a raised paved terrace overlooking the lawned gardens and open countryside beyond.

Ground Floor

The reception hall, sitting and dining areas all have oak flooring which flows through the ground floor to the garden room at the rear, which has a tiled floor and French doors to the garden. The sitting area has an open fireplace with inset wood burning stove. There is lapsed planning consent for a single storey rear extension to extend the kitchen/breakfast room (DA/2010/0978) and connect the utility room to the main accommodation.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

The vaulted main bedroom has a triple aspect with views over the gardens and fields to the rear as well as full-height fitted wardrobes and cupboards and an en suite wet room with a WC, a wash basin, and a shower. There are three further double bedrooms (one with fitted wardrobes), a single bedroom, and a first floor study. There is a refitted three piece shower room with a double shower cubicle and a separate three piece bathroom.
