5 bed cottage for sale

Lower Road, Loosley Row HP27

With a generous range of accommodation, the original parts of the property date back to the 18th century and retain a wealth of attractive period features such as exposed beams. A stable door opens into the entrance hall which provides access to the kitchen/breakfast room and steps descend to the impressive sitting and dining rooms which form part of the original house. The sitting room features an inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove, creating a warm and convivial atmosphere. Double doors open to a brick and double-glazed garden room with a vaulted glazed roof; a fabulous additional entertaining and relaxing space, making the most of the south-westerly aspect and views. French doors open from here to the terrace and gardens.
The triple aspect kitchen/breakfast room includes a built-in oven, hob and extractor fan. A useful utility room with a newly-installed gas boiler and a shower room with a separate cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation. The first floor comprises a triple aspect main bedroom with fitted bedroom furniture and an en suite shower room; four further bedrooms (one of which is currently used as a study) and a family bathroom, fitted with a white suite and fresh blue/white tiling.

Outside

Attractively landscaped and well-stocked gardens surround the cottage. They are largely laid to lawn with a wide variety of shrubs and bushes. A paved terrace is perfectly positioned to enjoy the attractive rural views and south-westerly aspect. Steps rise to a single garage and off-road parking.
