Description
“Swap traffic noise for birdsong and countryside views.”
Tucked away within the peaceful rural setting of Ashley, this delightful three-bedroom character cottage enjoys a wonderful blend of cottage charm, modern comfort and breathtaking countryside views in every direction.
Stepping inside, the property immediately welcomes you with warmth and character. The bright and inviting living room centres around an attractive open fireplace, creating a cosy focal point perfect for relaxing evenings throughout the year. Stairs rise to the first floor, whilst a doorway leads through to an inner hallway which connects the principal ground floor accommodation.
From here, a versatile reception room offers excellent flexibility and is currently utilised as a relaxing sitting room, making it ideal for home working, hobbies, a playroom or additional space to suit your needs. Adjacent is a practical utility room incorporating a WC, providing useful everyday convenience whilst remaining sympathetically in keeping with the cottage's character.
The true heart of the home is undoubtedly the superb open-plan dining kitchen. Beautifully styled and flooded with natural light, this wonderful entertaining space enjoys delightful views across the surrounding gardens and open countryside beyond. Cottage-style cabinetry, generous worktop space and ample room for family dining create a welcoming environment for both everyday living and entertaining. A feature log-burning stove provides warmth and character, whilst the impressive Rangemaster cooker further enhances the room's appeal. French doors open directly onto the garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months.
The first floor continues the cottage's welcoming feel and enjoys stunning rural views from every room. The principal bedroom is a bright dual aspect double room overlooking the surrounding countryside. Bedroom two is another generous dual aspect double bedroom, whilst bedroom three provides a versatile double room ideal as a guest bedroom, nursery or home office and benefits from built-in wardrobes. The accommodation is served by a well-appointed family bathroom fitted with a modern white suite comprising bath, wash hand basin and WC.
Outside, the property enjoys a particularly private setting. To the front, a generous gravelled driveway provides ample parking and creates an attractive approach to the cottage. To the rear, a beautifully landscaped patio offers an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst mature hedging creates privacy and shelter. Beyond the patio lies a delightful lawned garden with established planting, specimen trees and colourful borders, providing a peaceful retreat in which to relax and enjoy the surrounding countryside.
Offered with no onward chain, this charming cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful rural home in one of the area's most desirable village locations.
