Charming cottage in popular village
Situated opposite the 11th century church, Rectory Gate Cottage, a Grade II listed property believed to date from the 18th century, offers comfortable living in a very well regarded village setting. This period brick and stone fronted home offers many character features and has been extended and adapted over the years with a recent addition including a fine garden/dining room. Ground floor accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall which leads to the beamed sitting room with a lovely wide fireplace and inset log burner. Leading from the sitting room is a family room with a stable door and aspect over the rear garden. A further versatile living space is a study/snug with fitted bookshelves.
The kitchen has a cornflower blue two oven Aga, granite worksurfaces and a separate utility room for appliances. The garden room is used as a dining area and has an outlook over the good sized east facing lawned garden. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a boot room and WC. On the first floor there is a spacious landing which could be used as an open study area with three bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The property is approached via a gated gravel driveway leading to a generous parking area with an English Heritage oak and tiled car port. The mature rear garden is lawned with established trees offering shade and privacy together with well stocked flower and shrub beds. To the end of the garden is a summerhouse and a substantial shed for garden equipment.
