Juans Lane Kington Magna, SP8

A pretty stone C18th built cottage nestled in a lovely quiet position abutting open countryside, yet within the village.

The Property
Gillyflower is a pretty mid C18th cottage set on the edge of the village, abutting fields, giving lovely views to the east and south.

The cottage has been lovingly renovated by the vendor, very much in the cottage style. The sitting room has a wood burner to one end and an open fire to the other with stone flooring throughout. The kitchen has a range of wall and floor units and a glazed rear stable door leads to the patio area and rear garden beyond. With easy stairs to the landing, the principal bedroom is a good double with low storage units and views over fields. The 3rd bedroom also takes in these views with a picture window recessed with a window seat. The bathroom has a bath with shower over, wc and wash hand basin and a utility cupboard with stacked washing machine and dryer.

Outside
The gardens are a cottage delight. The front garden gate has the stone path leading to the porch. With a level lawn and a plethora of shrubs and perennials there is a secondary path leading to the side sitting area and the rear patio and rising garden beyond. The rear garden has recently been extended giving a wider plot still stretching along to the top of the garden, past the brick built shed. A garden gate gives access to the field that leads to the church at the top of the hill.

Across Juans Lane is a single garage with parking to the front. Access to the village is via 'Wine Bottle Walk', across the fields to Church Hill or via Juans Lane.
