3 bedroom house for sale

Overview

Here's our Top Ten reasons to love Yew Tree Cottage: 1. As pretty as a picture - in a slightly elevated position and set back off Lodge Lane, a charming period cottage, dating back to 1756, which has been extended over the years and is now ready for the next custodians to upgrade and maybe reconfigure to their specification and create a modern home for the 21st Century. 2. Character features - ceiling beams, some sash windows, fireplaces with flagged hearths (the sitting room fireplace has decorative tiled slips), recess shelving with cupboards under, tongue and bead doors with Suffolk latches, panelled doors and exposed wooden and quarry tiled floors. 3. Spacious accommodation set over two floors, with a gross internal measurement of c. 1418 sq ft ( 131.7 sq m). 4. Come on in... through the enclosed porch with double opening, part glazed Gothic arch doors and stone benches into the generous triple aspect sitting room, with fireplace to one end and staircase rising to the other. Off here is the snug, a lovely light room. 5. Welcoming, triple aspect dining kitchen with base and wall units, three oven black Aga and space for an under counter dishwasher and washing machine. There is also a rear vestibule with door to the garden and a two piece cloakroom. 6. Sweet dreams - a half return staircase leads to a split-level landing, three double bedrooms and an ante room. Off the main landing, an ante room leads through to bedroom 2, both being dual aspect. A corridor could be created to provide a fourth bedroom or it could be used as a dressing room or nursery. Bedroom 3 is also dual aspect and overlooks the garden Off the lower landing is triple aspect bedroom 1 with a pedestal wash basin, and a three piece house bathroom. 7. Delightful gardens - to the north is a private garden with flagged seating terrace, herbaceous borders and a gently sloping lawn. To the east, a wrought iron gate leads onto a cobble and flag path, manicured lawn and well stocked borders. There is also a small cobble and flag courtyard off the kitchen - a real suntrap and the perfect spot for morning coffee. 8. Amenity land - to the east of the property is a parcel of woodland c. 0.24 acres (0.10 hectares). In all, c. 0.40 acres (0.16 hectares). 9. Private parking - there is private driveway parking for a number of cars. 10.
