Charming refurbished period cottage with a contemporary feel throughout in the heart of the village.
Rose Cottage enjoys a wonderful location in the heart of the village and has undergone a complete renovation to a high specification by the current owners with meticulous attention to detail, expertly updated to combine its period features with contemporary design. The cottage dates back to about 1810, with later additions and is reputedly one of the oldest buildings in the village. Perfect for commuters, the property is ideally positioned about half a mile from the station with fast trains to London Marylebone.
Rose Cottage offers immaculately presented and characterful accommodation throughout. On the ground floor the reception space comprises a charming sitting room with exposed beams and an impressive inglenook fireplace complete with a wood burner, creating an inviting and relaxed setting. Oak herringbone flooring runs underfoot and steps lead up to the kitchen/dining area, with ample room for a table. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with an excellent range of units, Quartz worktops and an array of integrated appliances including a Smeg range cooker, built-in full size fridge & separate full size freezer, wine cooler, dishwasher and a smart 4 in 1 Quooker tap with hot, cold, boiling and cold filtered water. An array of wall and ceiling lighting illuminates the space. Just off the kitchen is a useful utility/store cupboard that hosts the washer/dryer and boiler.
Beyond the kitchen is a ground floor bedroom served by a well-appointed shower room. This area offers excellent flexibility of use and also serves well as a clinic/treatment room or home office with its own separate entrance.
On the first floor the principal bedroom, with views over the landscaped garden, benefits from an excellent range of built-in wardrobes while across the landing is a further double bedroom, overlooking the church. Both rooms are served by a luxuriously appointed bathroom, with a freestanding bathtub and walk-in shower.
To the front an entrance porch and covered patio area extends from the front of the house, providing an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the garden. The outside space forms an integral part of the home, cleverly landscaped with an area of lawn and raised, reclaimed beds stocked with a rose garden and a variety of seasonal plants giving colour and interest. A small driveway at the front provides parking for one car and there is an electric car charging point.
The owners have informed us that the property underwent a full renovation in 2025 including a full new roof, new electrical and gas re-wiring, new full heating system and boiler, new energy efficient windows throughout the property and connection to full fibre super-fast broadband.
