Situated in the sought after village of Newton Harcourt, this wonderful three bedroom cottage has been extended to combine its period character with modern day living.

Description

Situated on The Square in the sought-after village of Newton Harcourt, this three-bedroom cottage has been seamlessly extended and successfully combines the characteristics of an older property with the luxury and features of modern-day living.

The property is presented to a high standard throughout and enjoys an attractive cottage-style garden to the front and a fabulous Mediterranean-style garden to the rear.

The property is accessed via a composite stable door that leads to an inner hallway with a solid oak floor and a ground floor WC.

The lounge is a lovely dual-aspect room filled with natural light. A solid oak floor runs throughout, while a painted exposed beam adds character along with a multi-fuel stove set in a brick surround.

To the rear of the property is a desirable open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area which overlooks the rear garden. Bifold doors connect the living space to the rear terrace, creating a fabulous entertaining space over the summer months. The dining area is generous and ideal for entertaining or families alike. The room features an exposed beam, and a multi-fuel burner provides an additional heating source and creates a charming focal point.

Situated at the front of the property is a multi-functional room currently used as a utility/boot room and an early morning coffee spot where you can enjoy the view over the front garden. This flexible living space, with external access leading to the side of the property, would also lend itself as a great study/home office.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms that share a four-piece bathroom. The dual-aspect main bedroom is a lovely room, generous in size, and enjoys views over the front and rear gardens. There are two further bedrooms, a double and a single room, which is currently used as a study. The spacious bathroom has been refitted and includes a freestanding bath, separate shower cubicle, vanity wash hand basin, and a low-level WC.

Drop-down ladders lead from the landing to a generous loft space that provides additional storage and offers potential for a loft conversion subject to approval.

Outside, to the front of the property, is a stunning cottage-style garden with established borders and several carefully positioned seating areas that allow you to pause to enjoy the wildlife pond or take a break while working in the vegetable patch. A gravel driveway with an electric point provides off-road parking for two vehicles, and there is also a concealed storage area beyond.

Gated access leads to a Mediterranean-style rear garden that is west-facing and enjoys the afternoon and evening sun. There is a paved terrace adjacent to the house, and a gravelled garden with surrounding raised beds and a feature circular bed with a mature olive tree. There are two outbuildings that provide useful storage and which both benefit from power and lighting. There is also a bespoke greenhouse with power, and a covered lean-to/potting area.
