Tilford Road, Tilford

Abbots Cottage is an attractive rendered period family home offering 1,828 sq ft of light-filled, flexible accommodation arranged in an L shape over two floors. Designed to provide a practical and cohesive living and entertaining environment, it sensitively combines modern amenities, quality fixtures and fittings and elegant neutral décor with period features including casement glazing and some original fireplaces.

The ground floor accommodation flows from an entrance hall with useful storage. It gives access on one side to a sitting room with an office nook and an open fireplace, and on the other to a slat-floored dining room with an inset former bread oven, now used for storage, and a door to a rear hall with a contemporary family shower room and stairs rising to the first floor. A door from the dining room opens to a dual aspect kitchen, also with slate flooring. It has a range of wall and base units, complementary work surfaces and splashbacks, an Aga, and space for a good-sized table for more informal meals. A door opens to a side hall with an inter-connecting fitted utility room with terrace access and a door to a dual aspect wooden-floored drawing room with a woodburning stove flanked on each side by bespoke storage and bi-fold doors to the garden.

On the first floor an L-shaped landing with a feature fireplace and fitted shelving gives access to a dual aspect principal bedroom with en suite shower room, three further well-proportioned bedrooms and a modern family bathroom.

This property has 2.4 acres of land.
