Having been extensively modernised in the last year, Ivy Cottage is a fine example of a double fronted house in a highly accessible town centre location.
The house has seen a full replacement of windows and new wiring, including the annexe, and is fully refreshed inside and a delightful level and private garden to the rear.
The entrance hall is set between the two reception rooms, the sitting room having a lovely bay window with garden views, a fireplace with mantlepiece and is a lovely bright room. The dining room links to the kitchen with plenty of floor units, a window overlooking the rear garden and an aga. In turn, this leads to a small breakfast or snug area with wood burner and then onto the conservatory with French doors to the garden. At the other end of the kitchen is a large utility room with a flagstone floor and all the appliances as well as a downstairs shower room.
The 1st floor has three double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principle bedroom has a fine bay window with plenty of wardrobe space.
