DESCRIPTION
1 Abbotswood Cottages has been stylishly and thoughtfully renovated to create a light-filled and spacious family home. Careful thought has been put into creating living spaces which work equally well for entertaining with family and friends, as they do for everyday practical living. Attention to detail is evident throughout, with oak latch doors and unique metal fireplaces. The open-plan kitchen and dining room is at the heart of the home and offers a fabulous space to cook up a feast, with granite worktops providing ample preparation space and pale green units creating plenty of discreet storage. A utility leads off the kitchen, ideal for hiding laundry. The sitting room is a lovely room in which to relax and unwind and reclaimed parquet flooring adds a feeling of warmth and character. The sitting room overlooks open fields, with pretty views looking towards Coopers Hill. Double glass doors lead off the sitting room, to a cosy home office. A cloakroom with shower leads off the main reception hall, together with a second reception/family room, ideal as a snug or music room. Double doors open to a secluded patio, perfect for a morning coffee.

Four double bedrooms are located on the first floor, all with glorious views over the surrounding countryside. The principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room and there is also a family bathroom at this level. All of the bedrooms have been thoughtfully laid out to provide both comfort and practicality.

A red brick annexe with garage and workshop, is a superb addition to the property. The annexe has it's own private parking and entrance and comprises a first floor open-plan kitchen/living area, together with a good-sized bedroom with en-suite and Juliet balcony. The double garage is accessed via electric doors and there is also a spacious workshop. The enclosed garden is largely to the side of the house and comprises level lawns and a choice of seating areas, ideal for alfresco dining in the warmer months. A large driveway provides parking for several cars.
