Very attractive three bedroom Grade II listed semi-detached period cottage with walled courtyard garden, in the heart of the village.
Faircoombe is a very attractive semi-detached period home, characterised by handsome red and grey brick elevations with red brick window dressings and sash windows to the front. Listed Grade II, of special architectural or historic interest', the property and its adjoining neighbour are understood to have originally been one property dating from the 18th century and were divided in the mid-1950s.
Internally, the property is very well presented with classic features including some exposed timbers, stripped wood, parquet and clay tiled flooring, picture rails, and open fireplaces. There are two formal reception rooms: a cosy sitting room featuring a cast iron open fireplace, and a dining room with herringbone parquet flooring and a brick fireplace set with a woodburner.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of shaker-style units with woodblock worktops and a ceramic sink; there is a space for a large American-style fridge/freezer, a walk-in understair larder cupboard, and a former fireplace recess with feature ship's beam over housing a Rangemaster oven. To the rear of the house, understood to be a 1920s extension and still with the original crittal windows, is a study overlooking the walled garden, and a downstairs cloakroom.
There are three bedrooms on the first floor, lying off a spacious part-galleried landing. Bedroom one lies at the front of the house with lovely views to the village playing fields; bedrooms two and three are charming rooms both benefitting from built in storage cupboards. The bedrooms are served by a bathroom and separate WC, with classic white suite.
Outside
Faircoombe is accessed from the High Street via a good-sized brick and stone driveway, which has space for up to three cars and leads to the attached single garage. The garage has timber double doors and a courtesy door to the rear allowing access to the rear garden.
The courtyard garden is of particular note, private and well-enclosed by an attractive original brick wall, paved in brick and flagstone and edged by raised well-stocked and colourful flower and shrub borders. Features include an elegant bespoke iron arbor covered in climbers, an original well with uplighting, and a water feature; a timber shed provides garden storage along with a wood store, and there is ample space for an outside table and chairs.
