We strongly recommend internal inspection to fully appreciate this immaculate deceptively spacious double-fronted cottage, situated in this much sought after residential area of Blacksnape. The current owners have lovingly maintained and restored the cottage. It was extended approximately ten years ago to provide superb family sized living accommodation with three good size bedrooms. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and has many character features throughout, briefly comprises, entrance vestibule, snug/home office (could be used as fourth bedroom), elegant lounge with wood burning stove. A stunning open plan extended living/dining/breakfast kitchen with contemporary and a range of integrated appliances and bi-folding doors to the beautiful rear garden.

Gas central heating and PVC double-glazed windows are installed throughout along with attractive internal doors, neutral décor and complimenting quality flooring. The rear garden is larger than average and is privately enclosed and has a number of seating areas that take advantage of the stunning views. Viewing is essential!
