Description:
Sexton's Cottage is a striking house built originally in the 1860’s and situated adjacent to St Mary’s Church in this wonderful location. Originally an infant school it subsequently became the home of the Sexton to St Mary’s Church until being sold off in the 1960’s. The house has been tastefully converted and extended to provide a wonderful family home. The current owners have been in the property for over 45 years and made significant improvements over their years of ownership. The spacious accommodation is arranged over 2 floors and briefly comprises an entrance hall, wonderful vaulted ceiling sitting room with fireplace, study, playroom, dining room, kitchen/breakfast room and expansive utility and boot room area. On the first floor there is a lovely landing area, with bookcases, which overlooks the sitting room and gives access to the bedrooms. There is a principal bedroom with build in wardrobes and en suite shower room, guest bedroom (accessed off a separate staircase) with en suite bathroom, 2 further bedrooms, one with built in wardrobe, and a family bathroom.

The private garden wraps around the house and is primarily laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedging. The main area of garden is south and west facing and looks out towards St Mary’s Church while adjacent to the house there is patio area perfect for ‘al fresco’ dining.
