A Grade II listed cottage with a contemporary twist
A Grade II listed cottage dating back to the late 17th Century, Freemans Cottage has been extended over time creating a spacious, well-organised family home. The property has been reconfigured to create flowing, immaculately presented accommodation throughout, combining the period features with modern finishes. The property is flooded with natural light and presented to a high standard.
The front door leads from West End into a spacious hallway. The kitchen/diner has been recently reconfigured to create a flowing space, perfect for the family to gather at the heart of the home and is fitted with an excellent range of painted cabinets, oil fired Aga and granite worktops. A substantial wall unit provides additional storage and wine fridge. There is ample room for a large dining table or kitchen island, with French doors leading out onto the private terrace.
The kitchen leads into a back hallway with access to the front garden. To the right is a spacious sitting room with a wood burner set into the inglenook fireplace and a bay window flooding the room with natural light and views of the private garden. Planning permission exists to replace the bay window with French doors.
To the other side of the hall is a snug/playroom, where the period features continue and is complete with a wood burner. An additional staircase leads from the snug to the first and second floor.
From the back hall, the stairs lead up to a spacious landing. The spacious principal bedroom benefits from views over the garden, natural light and ample storage. A bedroom has been reconfigured to provide a dressing room with ensuite shower. Bedroom two provides another spacious room, with en suite jack-and-jill bathroom. A family en suite and bedroom three, a spacious double bedroom, completes the first floor. The snug staircase leads to the second floor where there is a further double bedroom and family bathroom, alongside the perfect home office location.
The property is approached through electric timber gates. There is a large area for parking with a double carport and garage providing additional storage. The current vendors have a designated play area, as well as additional outside storage. A large, private terrace is accessed from the kitchen, providing the perfect place for al-fresco dining and family entertainment. The majority of the garden is laid to lawn with pleach trees creating a private space interspersed with trees and shrubs.
