Overview

Keepers Cottage is a charming period home dating from 1876, featuring red brick elevations with attractive patterned brick detailing. Inside, there is more than 2,200 sq ft of light-filled, characterful accommodation.

The main ground-floor reception room is the well-proportioned sitting room, which has an open fireplace and a south-facing aspect overlooking the garden to the front. Also at the front is a formal dining room with a grand, brick-lined inglenook fireplace, featuring its original timber lintel and fitted with a log burner. Adjoining the dining room is the kitchen. It has fitted units for storage and an Aga, as well as a breakfast area with built-in bench seating and internal walk-in cupboard. To the rear of the cottage is a w/c, walk-in larder and useful utility room. The ground floor is completed by a light-filled study with an en suite shower room and French doors. This room could serve as a gym or an additional bedroom for multi-generational living.

On the first floor there are five well-presented bedrooms, four of which are doubles. The principal bedroom enjoys a sunny south-facing aspect with beautiful views across the surrounding landscape, as well as built-in storage and an en suite bathroom. There is also a family bathroom with an over-bath shower. The three further first-floor double bedrooms all have built-in cupboard space

This property has 1.2 acres of land.
