An immaculately presented, detached period home with landscaped gardens.
Nestled in the picturesque village of Tinwell, No. 12 Main Street offers the perfect balance of historical charm and modern living. Believed to date back to the early 1800s, this Grade II listed stone-built cottage was once two separate dwellings. Recently renovated to offer a stunning blend of traditional character and contemporary design, the property presents an idyllic retreat with all the conveniences of modern living.
Spanning two floors, the accommodation comprises three spacious bedrooms, two luxurious bathrooms, three versatile reception rooms, and a large kitchen/diner, alongside a beautifully landscaped garden, studio, and double garage.
Upon entering the cottage through the covered porch, you are greeted by the inviting sitting room, where south-facing views of the garden through a feature window create a tranquil atmosphere. The central stone-surrounded fireplace adds a warm and welcoming touch.
Next door, the kitchen, designed by Bakehouse, is a true culinary masterpiece. Featuring sleek quartz worktops, bespoke nickel hardware, and a spacious larder cupboard, this kitchen boasts integrated high-end appliances, including a Woolf induction hob, two Neff ovens, warming drawer, larder fridge/freezer, wine fridge, dishwasher, and instant hot/cold tap. The space also includes a complementary banquette-style dining table for formal dining, with additional informal seating at the central breakfast island.
The snug, or potential formal dining room, features another feature window and stone-surround fireplace. Bespoke built cabinetry adds a personalized touch. The room leads to the inner lobby, downstairs W.C., and the garden room. This light-filled space, with French doors opening onto the patio, provides the perfect spot to enjoy the magnificent garden views.
Upstairs, all three bedrooms enjoy delightful south-facing views of All Saint's Church. The principal bedroom suite is a serene retreat, featuring a well-appointed en suite shower room and a bank of in-built wardrobes. Bedrooms two and three are generously sized, each with in-built wardrobes and served by the family bathroom.

A cedar and oak studio, currently utilized as a home office, offers a tranquil retreat.
The south-facing front garden is a gardener's dream, with a well-designed kitchen garden featuring beds, pleached pear and apple trees. At the rear of the property, a double garage provides ample parking and additional storage.
