Property description
Welcome to Sharp Cottage, a property with striking curb appeal, thanks to its elevated position and charming frontage surrounded by brick walls. The front garden features a well-kept lawn with vibrant plants and shrubs, offering a warm welcome. There's also a double garage and ample driveway space for multiple vehicles.
Step inside, and you'll find an inviting entrance porch leading to a spacious hallway. This area is enhanced by a bay window, plush carpets, pendant lighting, and exposed beams that lend a rustic touch. The vaulted ceilings and built-in storage add to the sense of space, with doors leading to various rooms, including a conveniently located cloakroom with a WC.
The kitchen/breakfast room is designed for both functionality and style. It has vaulted ceilings, Velux windows for natural light, and doors opening to the backyard. The kitchen features a mix of white base and wall units, sleek black countertops, wood flooring, and inset spotlights. It is equipped with an integrated oven, hob, and extractor hood, and has room for an American-style fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and other under-counter appliances. A large utility room provides even more storage and includes space for additional kitchen appliances and a second integrated oven.
The L-shaped lounge/dining room is a generous and versatile space with high ceilings, plush carpets, and ample natural light. It features two sets of French doors that open to the garden, as well as additional windows and a Velux skylight. This expansive room has plenty of space for both dining and relaxation, making it perfect for hosting gatherings or enjoying quiet evenings at home.
The sleeping quarters are equally impressive, with five generously sized bedrooms, each offering integrated storage. The family bathroom includes a P-shaped bath with an overhead shower, a WC, a hand wash basin, and a Velux window. The master bedroom is especially spacious, featuring exposed beams, a bay window, and an en-suite with a similar setup as the family bathroom, along with a heated towel rail.
Outside, the rear garden is a private oasis. It's fully enclosed by fencing and offers plenty of space to unwind or entertain. The garden is primarily laid to lawn, with a large paved patio running the width of the property. This outdoor area is ideal for setting up garden furniture, enjoying family meals, or hosting barbecues. The raised border, filled with plants, shrubs, and mature trees, adds to the garden's charm. You'll also find access to the garage and a large shed for additional storage.
Overall, Sharp Cottage is a remarkable property, offering space, comfort, and versatility both indoors and outdoors. It’s a perfect place to call home for those seeking a blend of style and functionality.
