A characterful Grade II listed extended and sympathetically modernised thatched house with a lovely south-facing gardener's garden of about a third of an acre.

The Property
Rosemary Cottage is a Grade II listed detached house of painted rendered elevations under a thatched roof. The house has been extended by the current owners and offers characterful and charming accommodation expertly combining old and new. The kitchen / dining / family room is at the rear of the house, south facing and equipped with modern quality appliances, sleek quartz worktops and ample storage and is a superb family or entertaining space. There are three additional reception rooms on the ground floor and period features which include flagstone floors, deep window sills, a bressummer beam, bread oven and a feature well. There is also a useful utility / laundry room, cloakroom and workshop.

On the first floor the master bedroom has a recently fitted ensuite bathroom and dressing area and there are two further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a second floor attic room with useful walk-in storage beyond. Listed Building Consent, now lapsed was granted for a further extension to the day room.

Outside
The property is approached from the lane via wrought iron gates on to a private drive with parking for a number of cars and large insulated timber work shop with light and power, which could be adapted into a garage, if required. The main garden is at the back of the house and is a real delight with vibrant and colourful flower and shrub beds and borders, some mature trees, neat paths mown through and a summerhouse. Tri-fold doors from the kitchen / dining room open to a sun-trap terrace.

Situation
