Impressive reception rooms comprise a spacious sitting/dining room with a central wood burning stove and views to the front and rear, and a family room with access to the garden.

The modern kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units with some integral appliances and provides a view over the gardens and side access.

There is a study which could be utilised as a playroom/snug if required, and a cloakroom with utility space completes the ground floor.

Stairs ascend to the first floor and superb principal bedroom suite, which benefits from built-in storage cupboards and is served by an en suite shower room, together with stairs leading to an attic room with eaves access.

There are three further bedrooms, all with built-in storage and one with doors opening to a roof terrace providing a charming southerly aspect over the gardens. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Petham Cottage is approached over a long sweeping driveway, culminating at the front of the property and open bay garage, providing ample off road parking.

The magnificent gardens and grounds enjoy a southerly aspect and are a real feature. The formal gardens are predominantly laid to lawn interspersed with a variety of established evergreen and deciduous specimen trees, hedging and well-stocked flowerbeds.

A charming paved terrace spans part of the property and features a timber framed pergola, providing excellent areas for al fresco entertaining.

The grounds extend to the south to an excellent vegetable garden with raised beds and continue into pastureland beyond post and rail fencing, where there is an open fronted barn/field shelter, providing an excellent opportunity to be utilised for equestrian purposes or the grazing of livestock.

In total the plot amounts to about 4 acres.
