About this property

Description
An enchanting and most attractive Grade II listed end-of-terrace period cottage of immense charm and character, sympathetically improved but offering further potential with planning consent in place (ref. 22/00089/HFUL) for a single storey extension. The property also has the benefit of an enclosed rear garden and a further delightful and generous ‘secret garden' accessed by a private path to the side.

PRIVATE PATHWAY to the side which leads to the two gardens of the property, one adjacent to the property and the other ‘the secret garden’ at the end of the path. The pathway also accesses a brick constructed garden store, and a bin store. No.s 15 and 17 enjoy a right of access to their gardens via the pathway but not through the gardens of No 19.

The garden which is immediately to the rear of the cottage is enclosed by wood panel fencing and is mainly laid to lawn with raised borders and mature shrubs and a garden storage shed and there is a small paved area immediately adjacent to the cottage.

The larger ‘secret garden’ is a delight and enjoys a very high degree of privacy and seclusion and is principally laid to lawn with a great variety of mature shrubs, bushes, trees and well stocked borders around. There is a most attractive secluded paved terrace set in front of a wall with shrub covered pergola above and this overlooks the garden pond. In the furthest corner of the garden there is also a charming area ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining with a stunning view of the church tower in the distance. There is a generous timber deck adjacent to which is a TIMBER STUDIO/SUMMERHOUSE with glazed windows, water, light and power.
