SUMMARY:
A charming cottage and a family home for more then 20 years. Extended and sympathetically restored throughout - The Old Forge is ready for new owners.


GROUND FLOOR:
The cottage has been meticulously refurbished and extended, yet retains charm and character throughout. The sitting room is bright and airy, yet feels cosy due to the woodburning stove. An opening leads to the dining room which has superb garden views and provides an ideal space to entertain family and friends.

The kitchen has recently been renovated to a high specification, with quality appliances having been installed. There are quartz worktops, solid oak units and a travertine tiled floor, which make this kitchen ideal for those who are passionate about cooking. Completing the ground floor space is a well fitted utility room, as well as a ground floor cloakroom - a real bonus for a cottage of this age.


FIRST FLOOR:
The landing provides access to three bedrooms and a bathroom. All of the bedrooms are double, with the main bedroom benefiting from bespoke built in wardrobes, providing plenty of storage. The additional bedrooms have been repurposed to a well-appointed study and a snug which further evidences the versatility of this home.

OUTSIDE:
The external space has been fully transformed. To the front of the property is a gravel drive providing off-road parking, wooden gates lead to a beautifully manicured garden, which captures the morning sun and is the ideal space to enjoy your coffee. To the rear of the house is additional parking, where the current owners store their motorhome. The main garden is low maintenance; there is a covered outdoor area housing a "kitchen garden" - a space that has created many happy memories. A grapevine provides a Mediterranean feel in the summer and the decked area extends the social space, whilst the rockery and various shrubbery and trees create a tranquil environment to relax and recharge.
