DESCRIPTION Tucked away in a peaceful setting, The Briars Cottage is a beautifully restored three-bedroom period home that exudes timeless charm and character. Set behind a handsome mansard roofline and framed by attractive brickwork, the property's eye-catching front elevation is matched by the warmth and elegance found within. During the current family's tenure, the cottage has been sympathetically refurbished throughout, blending its original features with stylish enhancements suited to modern living. On entering the property, a welcoming hallway with tiled flooring leads directly into a stunning open-plan sitting and dining room-a true heart of the home. This spacious reception area boasts a wealth of exposed ceiling timbers, a charming open fireplace with a herringbone-patterned tiled hearth, and a lovely range of front-facing casement windows. Adjacent to the dining area, a kitchen fitted to a high standard is perfectly placed for entertaining, complemented by a practical cloakroom and a useful rear hall/utility room. Upstairs, the first-floor landing provides access to two generous double bedrooms and a third single room that would also serve well as a dressing room or home office, in addition to a well-appointed family bathroom.
