A detached, Grade II listed period cottage of unquestionable character and charm set within mature and private gardens located centrally within this highly sought-after village.
The Carriers is a detached, Grade II listed thatched cottage dating back to the 1600s and was originally two cottages. The current owner's family bought the property in the 1970s converting it to a single dwelling and virtually rebuilding the property as it had fallen into disrepair. The cottage retains much of its original unique features including a wealth of exposed timber beams and a beautiful inglenook fireplace.
The accommodation comprises two principal reception rooms, both with fireplaces including the sitting room with inglenook fireplace and a study / playroom with access to the secondary staircase. There is a generous kitchen / breakfast room fitted with bespoke cabinetry and adjoining it is a garden room, which incorporates both a utility area and a cloakroom w.c. With the necessary planning consents, these two areas could easily be converted into one large kitchen / dining / family space with views over the lovely rear garden.
The first floor is accessed via two stairwells giving independent access to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Outside, the the gravel driveway provides off road parking for two vehicles. The rear garden is predominantly laid to shaped and manicured lawns with well-stocked flower and shrub borders and beds, a selection of trees and bushes and a generous brick paved terrace, ideal for alfresco dining and all enjoying excellent levels of privacy and seclusion.
