Steeped in history and in an idyllic location adjacent to the river Yar this unique, single storey property was originally built in the 1890s as the railway cottage when the railway ran alongside the river. While the trains are long gone and the railway has now become a bridle and cycle path, the cottage is just waiting for new owners to modernise its accommodation to make it a stunning home where you can enjoy the magnificent views, a plethora of local wildlife including swans on the river and in a peaceful and tranquil environment.
With its triple pitched and varied roof lines, chimney stack, barge boards, wood framed windows and white painted exterior, the cottage has instant external appeal. The hallway has tiled flooring that flows throughout the property and provides immediate access to the open plan, double aspect lounge / kitchen / dining room with a log burner for those cold winter days and a kitchen area as well as French doors to the conservatory. This is a great feature of the cottage as it spans the width of the property and includes a free-standing log burner you can cosy up to on a cool evening. It also provides additional seating and dining areas as well as delightful views of the river and the extensive garden.
The U-shaped kitchen area is just waiting for new owners to create their own dream kitchen while the adjacent utility room includes a recently installed new boiler. There is a shower room that requires updating as well as a family bathroom and two double bedrooms.
The delightful and extensive garden surrounds most of the cottage and is bordered by hedging on one side and a paved area with a picket fence that runs alongside the bridle path and the river on the other, which in total measures 0.95 acres. There is a driveway for off road parking just outside the front door, a brick-built barbecue adjacent to the conservatory, raised vegetable and shrub beds, a number of greenhouses and garden sheds, a natural pond and a meadow area as well as views as far as Yarmouth.
