A beautifully presented and renovated period cottage set in a tucked away location with stunning gardens, large garage/workshop and lots of parking.
Apple Tree Cottage tastefully blends period cottage living with modern convenience. The cottage has been much improved in recent years and offers free flowing accommodation over two floors. The property is accessed via a central hallway which provides principal access to the downstairs rooms. There is a smart remodelled kitchen/dining room, featuring a good range of traditional units with wooden work surfacing and a range style cooker. Ample space for a dining table. On the opposite side of the hallway is a beautiful dual aspect sitting room featuring a large bay window overlooking the garden and wood burning stove. A single step-up leads through to an inner lobby with cloakroom and to the superb double glazed conservatory. There is also a utility room providing additional storage and sink unit. A steep staircase rises to the first floor landing which in turn continues to four well proportion bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom with separate shower enclosure. The master bedroom features fitted wardrobes and balcony, while the guest bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room. The cottage is presented in excellent decorative condition throughout and includes extensive double windows and a gas fired central heating system.

The gardens are dog friendly and are full enclosed with a good degree of privacy provides by established shrubs and trees. Well stocked borders, vegetable garden, shed and greenhouse. A gate to the rear of the garden provides access to a large private gated parking area belonging to the cottage. This provides parking for numerous vehicles and would ideally suit buyers with a motorhome or caravan. Outside water supply and garage/workshop.
