Charming period home with self-contained cottage in stunning central village location.
Old Vine Cottage, a remarkable property dating back to the 18th century, offers a unique opportunity to own a charming village home with the potential for alterations and enhancements while preserving its original character (Ref: 21/P/02639).
This historic dwelling boasts numerous period features, including a stunning Inglenook fireplace, exposed brick walls, and beautiful wooden beams. Combining traditional elements with a modern touch, the cottage showcases a high-quality finish, especially evident in its more recent extension.
The heart of the home lies within the splendid open plan kitchen and breakfast area, seamlessly connected to a cosy family room adorned with Velux windows and a vaulted ceiling. This inviting space features a large central island with an integrated gas range cooker, a wine fridge, and contemporary cabinetry, offering ample room for dining and entertaining.
The layout of the reception rooms provides flexibility, and the sitting room stands out with its remarkable inglenook fireplace housing a stylish log-burning stove. From here, you can flow seamlessly into the elegant dining room.
The first floor accommodates three bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the main bedroom boasting a vaulted ceiling adorned with original beams and a captivating feature fireplace. Additionally, on the ground floor, there is a fourth bedroom. Hawthorn Cottage, an annexed self-contained one-bedroom property with a separate title, accompanies the main cottage, making it perfect for ancillary accommodation or multi-generational living.
Surrounding Old Vine Cottage, the split-level gardens embrace the property, creating a tranquil setting. Positioned at the heart of the plot, the cottage is complemented by a raised sun terrace, a spacious lawn, and further opportunities for landscaping. The mature hedging ensures utmost privacy, and the gardens provide an idyllic setting to enjoy the vibrant spring and summer seasons.
Access to the cottage is granted through wooden gates, leading to a double garage at the front. The garage also includes a convenient first-floor studio room and a cloakroom with a WC. Additional parking is available on the gravel driveway. As an added bonus, the property boasts 6kW of solar panels and a Tesla Powerwall 2 battery, complete with facility for vehicle charging point.
