Park the car and walk down to this pretty house and take a moment to appreciate the surrounding greenery and peaceful views. The charm continues inside where period features like exposed beams and ornamental fireplaces combine with thoughtful, homely touches. Budding chefs will enjoy the creatively designed kitchen which has all the equipment you need to rustle up a meal, maybe with the local produce purchased on your travels. This vibrant space is soaked in natural light thanks to the skylights above. Enjoy the chef’s hard work through in the separate dining room where a spacious table sits beneath wooden ceiling beams and near a crackling wood burner. After dinner continue through to the lounge where rural charm makes it easy to unwind. Sit back in the comfy seating, switch on the Smart TV and bask in the glow of the wood burner that sits in a large, characterful fireplace that takes centre stage in this relaxing room. When it’s time for bed, choose from three sumptuous bedrooms, the first of which is here on the ground floor – a welcoming double with its own en-suite shower room with WC. With a farmhouse-style door leading to the garden and overhead skylights that reveal the surrounding greenery, this is a delightful space to awake each morning. Follow the stairs up from the lounge to find the two remaining bedrooms, both of which also offer double beds and are served by the well-appointed bathroom which completes the interior.
The sun-soaked and scenic outdoor space is no doubt one of the highlights of this fantastic property, with plenty of green spaces split across various levels to the front and rear of the cottage. To the front, perch on the stone wall with your morning brew and take in the mountain views. At the rear, let little ones and dogs play in the enclosed, lawned garden. Plan al fresco afternoon and evening meals using the BBQ and outdoor furniture that await, and afterwards enjoy an evening tipple in the heated sunroom. A spacious, private hot tub sits beneath of skylight gazebo for evenings of bubbles and stargazing, while a well-equipped games room boasts a pool table, dartboard and gym equipment for competitive afternoons together. You’ll also find space to store mountain bikes or any other holiday equipment.
