This cosy two-bedroom thatched cottage, occupying a superb position in the heart of the pretty village of Sidbury, is packed with much charm and character.
The Grade II listed dwelling is believed to be more than 400 years old and has benefitted from a sympathetic modernisation with extensive renovations being made in recent years. The result is a homely property presented to an exceptional standard.
The front door opens directly into a generously sized, yet cosy looking, living room where a delightful inglenook fireplace takes pride of place as the focal point. Other period features include exposed beams and timbers that add charm and appeal to the room. There's also a west-facing window with a pleasant window seat below.
The crisp white kitchen/dining room benefits from east and west-facing windows, and it has been updated with a good range of units and warm wooden work surfaces. The room is spacious enough to accommodate a good-sized dining table.
Upstairs, there are two comfortable double bedrooms with exposed timbers. The second bedroom has a large walk cupboard which would work well as an excellent dressing room. The bathroom is fitted with a luxurious suite and a separate shower cubicle.
Outside, to the rear of the cottage, there is a sunny, low maintenance courtyard garden decked out with a wealth of plants and shrubs including a beautiful wisteria.
Recent external work includes the recovering the front of the thatch roof, while the rear has been refurbished.
