BACK ON THE MARKET! A fabulous and beautifully refurbished character residence in the heart of the village. Formerly the old village school and converted in the 1980’s. The current owner has refurbished the property to create a beautiful, contemporary living space whilst retaining the original features. The property has underfloor heating downstairs and offers two bedrooms, family bathroom, dressing/ potential en-suite, lounge with internal glazed partition on a dwarf wall onto the kitchen. Both the kitchen and lounge have large double doors out to the charming cottage garden. Paved and with contemporary fence, ornamental lamps and deco making this a fabulous garden hideaway. A completely unique period home in this sought after rural village location.

The property retains the original windows with stone surround, which dominate  the front of the property, creating a flood of natural light as well as being a striking feature. This characterful property also offers great ceiling height and exposed beams to the bedrooms.

The property is entered via the attractive stone set doorway with stained-glass  and into the entrance hall where stairs rise to the first floor and door off to the lounge with beautiful Kardeen wood floors across the lounge and kitchen/diner. Terracotta tiled step to double-glazed french doors from the lounge out to the garden at the rear with the original stone casement windows to the front. This room has bespoke fitted oak cupboards and is partitioned from the kitchen by a glazed partition feature wall, which creates the impression of an open-plan space whilst retaining a distinct separation between the living spaces. The kitchen/diner also benefits from the stone casement windows to the front and the large french doors opening to the garden. This property really flows, with the pretty terraced garden becoming an additional room in fine weather.

The fabulous bespoke kitchen is hand crafted by ARLA Design, based in Stratford-upon-Avon and features composite worktops, integrated Neff dishwasher, Neff Washer/Dryer, Belling Induction Hob, double oven and grill, overhead extractor, fridge freezer, Belfast sink with boiling water tap, double storage cupboards/pantry with internal light.

The bedroom accommodation on the first floor includes spacious landing, main bedroom of a good size with vaulted ceilings, feature circular window and the higher part of the stone casement windows. There is a further room off the bedroom that could be a dressing/ baby room or there is plumbing for an en-suite. This is a stunning room!
