This wonderful family home stands in a beautiful private garden and is steeped in history. Understood to have originally been two Victorian cottages, numbers 1 & 2 Woodbine Cottages, the property was acquired in the 1940s and significantly remodeled to create the imposing property we have today. The property is approached off Blacksmiths Lane and has a driveway providing off road parking for four vehicles, a detached double garage with eaves storage and a very useful attached home office. Internally the property is extremely well presented and comprises of a wide hall with stairs to the first floor, sitting room with a fireplace, snug/family/TV room, dining room, modern fitted kitchen which leads to a conservatory and a utility/cloakroom. On the first floor off a galleried landing there are three sizeable bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms including the principal bedroom suite, the loft has been converted to provide fantastic storage or alternatively a children’s playroom. Externally the property stands in a beautifully established and generous garden surrounded by a high hedge creating a high degree of privacy. The property has been owned by the present owner since 1995 and is offered to the market for the first time since with the added benefit of planning in principle for the erection of an additional dwelling within the grounds of the existing property.
