About the Property

In an idyllic location on the edge of the village of Woollard is this sensitively renovated and extended 18th century detached stone cottage. Fully modernised with underfloor heating whilst retaining original features such as beautiful flagstone floors and exposed beams, the property does require a small amount of finishing to creating a stunning rural retreat. Also benefits from a pretty cottage garden with useful stone outbuildings, private driveway and two acres of land with timber stables.

About the Inside

From a path through the traditional cottage front garden, the large oak door opens straight into a stunning living/dining room. Restored beams are illuminated by subtle lighting, original flagstone floors complement the exposed stone walls, while deep windowsills offer an inviting place to sit. A large inglenook fireplace with a woodburning stove forms a cosy living room at one end, and a former bread oven and fireplace create interesting nooks for the dining area. A beautiful oak staircase winds round to the first floor, and a cottage door leads through to the spacious kitchen. The triple aspect kitchen is part of the rear extension and enjoys views onto the courtyard and garden. Currently unfinished, there is a belfast sink built into a timber framed unit, stable door to the courtyard, and a feature exposed stone wall and beams.

Upstairs, vaulted ceilings show off the beautiful exposed beams, and polished floorboards and stone walls add to the modern rustic aethestic. The family bathroom has a traditional style white suite with a free standing claw foot bath. All three double bedrooms have unique features, with the principal bedroom benefitting from an unfinished en-suite and French doors that will open out onto a bridge connecting the house to the garden with views across the land.

About the Outside

There is an attractive cottage garden to the front with a timber gate set in a stone wall leading to the front door. To one side is a single garage with parking in front. Further on, a five bar gate opens onto a long driveway that leads to the back of the property and provides plenty of parking and access to the land and stables. A generous lawn bordered by mature trees and shrubs sweeps down with stone steps and retaining walls to a sheltered courtyard by the kitchen door. A useful stone outbuilding has power and plumbing for a washing machine. The driveway continues to the timber stables set in the corner of approximately two acres of paddock directly behind the cottage. The extension had been designed to provide direct access from the principal bedroom via a metal bridge from the French doors which will need to be completed by the new owners.
