Introduction
Situated in Durley, this three-bedroom detached character cottage occupies a plot of approximately 0.3 acres. Boasting a rich history dating back 400 years, the property was initially formed by two 17th Century semi-detached cottages. This remarkable character residence has been meticulously maintained and developed, presenting itself as an outstanding home. Preserving a wealth of original features such as exposed beams and the original bread oven, it offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Ideal for contemporary family life, the property features a spacious living room and dining room, modern kitchen with an adjoining garden room and study, alongside a ground floor cloakroom and utility / lobby. Across the first floor are three double bedrooms, including the notable master room complete with vaulted beamed ceiling and en-suite, while a recently re-fitted four piece family bathroom completes the first floor space. Externally there two areas of landscaped gardens, one designed as a working allotment. As well a detached garage there is also a driveway with hardstanding for multiple vehicles.
Location
The property is situated within the pretty village of Durley that benefits from a popular primary school, church, village hall and two well-renowned pubs. The neighbouring market town of Bishops Waltham is also only minutes away, as is neighbouring Botley which has a mainline railway station. Both the Cathedral City of Winchester and the Southampton Airport are just under half an hour away with all main motorway access routes also being within easy reach.
Inside
The most practical access to the house is through an attractive timber framed open porch with wooden door which opens into the inner lobby / utility area. Greeted by exposed oak beams, modern tiled flooring and a bespoke oak staircase, which really sets the tone for the stunning property. The utility area offers a fitted oak work surface with inset butler sink and provides space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dyer, while there is also for space shoe and coat storage and access is given to the conveniently located ground floor cloakroom. An opening to one side leads into the well-proportioned dual aspect sitting room which features a stunning centralised double sided log burning fire with flagstone flooring and oak mantle above and is complimented by exposed ceiling beams. The adjoining dining room offers a characterful beamed ceiling and also enjoys the inviting atmosphere created by the exposed brick inglenook fireplace and original 17th Century bread oven. A doorway to the rear transitions into a modern and well-appointed Wren kitchen that comprises a matching range of base level work units set with striking quartz work surfaces and allows space for a range booker. Furthermore, there is an inset butler sink, in-build pantry with motion sensor lighting and integrated appliances include a fridge, freezer and dishwasher. Set with flagstone stone flooring the kitchen leads to both a dedicated office / study and the garden room which has double glazed French doors which open to the lovely rear garden.
On the first floor, the highly impressive master bedroom extends to around 23ft and showcases a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and offers a dressing area, has an abundance of space for freestanding bedroom furniture and provides access the adjoining en-suite shower room. Bedrooms two and three are both well proportioned double bedrooms both exuding an abundance of charm and character in the form of beamed walls and ceilings. Servicing both of these bedrooms and completing the first floor space is a well appointed and recently re-fitted four piece bathroom that offers a freestanding roll top bath, enclosed shower cubicle, wash hand basin, WC and traditional style heated towel radiator.
Outside
The generous gardens extend to either side of the house itself and are beautifully enclosed with well-established and mature hedging set on the front boundary. Gated access allows vehicular entry to a detached garage. The formal gardens are primarily laid to an expansive lawn and seating area with railway sleeper retaining borders to one side. The additional garden, found to the left hand side of the property houses an original brick built well and has been landscaped to form tiered sleeper enclosed vegetable and flower beds that extend to a generous driveway with hardstanding. Furthermore, there is currently outline planning consent (granted in 2023 / Planning application reference: 23/01858) to construct a two bedroom dwelling within this area or as previously passed as part of development works carried out by our clients valid consent for an timber framed detached car barn.
