A sensational period cottage, situated in a rural village with well-proportioned accommodation set out over two floors.
Description
Dating back to 1850, Church Cottage is a quintessential stone cottage which was extended in 2011 to create a nicely proportioned cottage, nestled into the heart of Lower Bitchfield, with a large private garden and outbuildings.
Set back from the village lane, the property enjoys views over neighbouring farmland and is flooded with natural light.
Ground Floor:
Entering from the driveway, the covered side entrance opens into a useful and welcoming hallway, which provides space for coats and shoes, completed with a downstairs wc.
Steps lead down from the entrance hall to the open plan kitchen/dining room which was an addition to the property in approx 2011, which enjoys sensational views down the garden. The kitchen has been fitted with a range of modern, wall and base units which provide storage, with an integrated induction hob and oven. There is ample space for a dining table and chairs, with access to the garden via French doors. A useful utility room provides additional storage and space for appliances.
Entering the original part of the cottage, the dining room provides a formal dining space whilst benefiting from south facing, natural light and views over the village. This delightful room is complete with a woodburning stove with stone mantle place and understairs storage.
Completing the ground floor is the sitting room, a well-proportioned space with views over neighbouring paddocks, complete with a wood burning stove.
First Floor:
The central staircase ascends to the first floor, providing access to three bedrooms, one of which is ensuite and the family bathroom.
Bedroom one is situated to the rear of the property, part of the 2011 extension, providing a spacious double bedroom, with views over the garden to the rear. The bedroom is fitted with a range of built-in wardrobes and complete with an ensuite shower room.
Bedrooms two and three are both spacious doubles, occupying the front of the property and enjoying views over the neighbouring paddocks. Bedroom three benefits from built in wardrobes.
Completing the first floor is the family bathroom.
Gardens & Grounds:
The property sits back from the village lane, occupying a slightly elevated setting to make the most of rural views to the south.
The driveway ascends from the village lane to a double garage which is currently used as storage, with an electricity supply. A pathway leads to the side entrance, and around to the private, rear garden.
The private rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a range of mature shrubs and trees, creating a peaceful and tranquil space, complete with a rear terrace accessed via the kitchen/dining room, which provides the perfect space for alfresco dining and entertaining.
The garden is complete with a stone outbuilding which provides additional storage for garden machinery and wood, with an electricity supply, and a garden shed.
