Description
Yew Cottage is a delightful period cottage, lying in the Conservation Area, of stone construction under a re-constituted stone tiled and slate roof. Over the years the property has been painstakingly improved and modernised whilst retaining all of its charm.
Period features include an open fireplace with wood burning stove, window seats, exposed timbers, elm cupboards, four panel internal doors, woodblock flooring.
The sitting room offers a tremendous amount of space with dual aspect and as a result natural light pervades throughout, which is slightly unusual for a property of this age.
A separate dining room leads to a well laid out kitchen. A door opens to the garden room which is ideal for informal eating and a vantage point to enjoy the lovely garden.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate shower room, the main bedroom with dual aspect has plenty of built in storage cupboards.
To the front is a gravelled courtyard offering off road parking for a number of cars.
There are delightful, mature level walled gardens to the front (south elevation) laid to lawn with herbaceous borders and beds. Stone terracing makes the perfect spot to unwind and entertain.
Across the garden is the bothy, a lovely stone outbuilding converted to a home office/library with semi-vaulted ceiling, wood burner, built in book shelves, pine floor boards and en suite shower room. Ideal for working from home or guest annexe. Attached to one end is a lean to log store. To the western end of the garden is a useful workshop with light and power connected. Greenhouse. Bin area, outside oil boiler and oil tank.
Key features of this property include a lovely central village position yet retaining privacy, lovely gardens, useful bothy and a comfortable period home with a modern feel.
