Description

They say it is all in the name and this delightful cottage does not disappoint being set in the most 'pleasant' of locations and providing simply stunning countryside views. It is set at the end of this row of terrace cottages and is unique in its appearance with its crenelated parapet roof line. You approach the property along a private road and once at the front door you are immediately drawn to take in the surrounding countryside views towards the end of the garden. Once inside the sitting room is a lovely light room with feature log burner fireplace and exposed beam ceiling providing a very cosy living space. This room also provides stairs to the first floor and access through to the study. The study is a useful space for a home office with plenty of storage and access to the rear courtyard garden and kitchen diner. The kitchen diner is a spacious family dining room with modern units, Range cooker, breakfast bar and flagstone floor. It provides access to the garage/utility area to the side aspect too with storage space and plumbing for appliances. To the first floor the part exposed stone walled landing leads to all bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom one is an absolute delight with exposed beam vaulted ceiling and two sash windows which overlook the garden and stunning countryside views beyond. A door leads to an ensuite shower room with shower, WC and wash basin. There are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom again providing delightful countryside views. Externally you cross the private lane into the southerly aspect garden which is laid to lawn with richly stocked beds, established shrubs and fruit tree. A winding stone path leads you down to the rear decked seating area which is simply stunning. Once here the whole treetop countryside panorama opens up with views across the Monkton Combe valley. You’d envisage spending many hours in this delightful garden and would appreciate the views and tranquillity for years to come. In our opinion this cottage has it all and would suit professional couples, families or downsizers alike. A real rural retreat on the edge of the city.
