French Meadow Cottage is a stunning Grade II listed detached residence, set on a gated plot of nearly half an acre. The property offers over 4,000 square feet of exceptional living space, along with a detached triple garage.

Rich in character and beautifully presented throughout, the house has been meticulously maintained and sympathetically enhanced by the current owners over the past 15 years.

The ground floor offers a welcoming entrance hall, featuring beautifully laid herringbone parquet flooring, which provides access to the first floor, sitting room, dining room, and kitchen. The sitting room enjoys a dual aspect, with French doors opening onto the garden, exposed beams, and a striking inglenook fireplace serving as the room's focal point. It also benefits from a secondary staircase to the first floor and a door leading to the study, which also enjoys a dual aspect, herringbone flooring, and a charming bay window. The dining room is accessed via a wide opening from the entrance hall and features a front-facing window along with another impressive inglenook fireplace as its centrepiece. The superb kitchen/breakfast room is beautifully appointed with a range of base and eye-level units, complemented by a stunning central island that includes a built-in wine cooler. A generous walk-in larder provides excellent additional storage. French doors open directly to the garden, while casement doors lead into the beautiful living room—undoubtedly the heart of this exceptional home. Bathed in natural light from its triple aspect, this impressive space features a vaulted ceiling that must be seen to be fully appreciated, with a log-burning stove serving as the focal point. A practical utility room/guest cloakroom completes the space.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite enjoys a dual aspect and a stunning vaulted ceiling, complemented by a feature decorative fireplace. The suite also includes a walk-in wardrobe and a en-suite shower room. The remaining four bedrooms are served by two additional family bathrooms, offering ample convenience for a growing family or visiting guests. Bedroom five is currently used as a flexible space and could easily function as a study or games room, depending on your needs.

Outside, the property boasts a beautifully maintained garden, predominantly laid to lawn and wrapping around the rear and side of the house. Enjoying a desirable south-westerly aspect, the garden is privately enclosed with mature hedging and tree-lined borders. A generous stone patio provides the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining, complete with a heated gazebo ideal for al fresco dining year-round.
