Cooksbridge

Woodbine Cottage is a charming listed property, offering four bedrooms and study, set within delightful country gardens. Located in the small village of Cooksbridge and thought to date from the 18th century or earlier, the property features brick and timber-clad elevations, while inside there are exposed beams and original fireplaces alongside elegant modern styling and fittings.

The main formal reception room is the generous drawing room at the front of the ground floor, featuring exposed and painted beams and a brick-built inglenook fireplace fitted with a logburner. Towards the rear, the sitting room/music room provides further space for relaxation, while the 23ft kitchen and dining area forms an excellent social space for family life and entertaining. The kitchen has Shaker-style fitted units, a central island and an Esse range cooker, while the dining area benefits from plenty of natural light through French doors and bi-fold doors opening onto the rear gardens.

Upstairs, there are four well-presented bedrooms and a study. The principal bedroom has skylights, built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room, while a further bedroom is also en suite and has built-in storage. The first-floor landing also leads to a family bathroom with a bath and separate shower.

The cottage sits within beautiful, peaceful country gardens enclosed by high hedgerows, providing a good degree of privacy. The grounds include areas of lawn, patios for al fresco dining, ornamental gardens with well-stocked borders, and a vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse. A driveway to the side provides plenty of parking and access to the detached garage and studio, offering an ideal space for home working.
