4 Bedroom Detached House

*NEWLY EXTENDED AND REDESIGNED*

Little Merlins Cottage is a charming and characterful detached home, originally dating back to the early 1700s.

Over the years, the property has been thoughtfully extended and modernised, most recently with a stunning oak-framed rear extension that creates a beautiful family living space.

On entering the property, the hallway provides access to all principal reception rooms. To the left, a well proportioned dual-aspect dining room with an open feature fireplace offers the perfect setting for formal entertaining. To the right, a generous study also benefits from a feature fireplace. The central hallway includes the staircase, a cloakroom/WC, and useful coat storage.

The cosy living room/snug features another open fireplace and double doors opening to the patio and garden.

The true heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen/living/dining space, enhanced by the oak-framed extension. This light-filled room enjoys far-reaching views over the south-west facing garden, with bi-folding timber doors and a wood-burning stove adding both character and warmth. The kitchen is fitted with modern shaker-style cabinets, granite worktops, a breakfast bar, integrated appliances, and a Rayburn stove. From here, a well-equipped utility/boot room provides additional storage, side access, and a connecting door to the garage.

Upstairs, the bright and spacious landing leads to three/four bedrooms. The principal suite is particularly impressive, enjoying garden views, a modern en-suite shower room, and an adjoining dressing room (which can be reinstated as a fourth bedroom if required). Bedrooms two and three are both comfortable doubles with fitted storage, and they are served by a contemporary family bathroom with shower-over-bath.

Externally, the property enjoys south westerly aspect rear gardens, with a generous expanse of lawn including border plantings and a paved entertaining area
