Country road, take me home, to a place, where I belong, not quite West Virginia but almost heaven, so we’ll take you there, we’ll take you there. And you won’t be disappointed if country life is what you’re looking for. Whether it’s just you or with a special person in your life, whether you have kids or not, if you like being with the outdoors, tinkering in the garden, feeling a bit of the good life, then you must come and view The Cottage. It starts with a private driveway where you can park two to three cars, then a pathway leads down to the front of the cottage to the porch entrance and then you’re into the kitchen/breakfast room where you can calmly enjoy a morning coffee with the pretty views outside the windows. Fitted with cupboards to the floor and walls with a worktop over, a Belfast style sink and integrated appliances that include; double Bosch ovens, Bosch induction hob and Bosch washing machine and tumble dryer, then space for a freestanding fridge/freezer, this country kitchen has it all in one enchanting space.

The last room to the ground floor is currently used as a large study but would make the perfect third bedroom or a combined space for an office and spare room for guests. Heading up the stairs we hope you’ll appreciate the quirky staircase and wobbly wall with the little window overlooking the dining room, it’s simply enchanting and charming at the same time then when you reach the top you’ll need to dip your head but stop and take a moment to look out the window to the views thereon.
