Description

DESCRIPTION

A wonderful two bedroom character cottage set within the heart of the desirable village of Dinder with private garden, summerhouse, single garage and parking space. The property is a little 'tired' and would benefit from some cosmetic updating. Offered to the market with no onward chain.

Upon entering the house is a spacious sitting/dining room with flagstone floors, an open fire as the focal point and a view looking out to the courtyard garden to the front. The kitchen comprises a range of fitted units, electric oven and gas hob, space for a washing machine, under stairs storage cupboard and view out to the garden. A inner hall has further storage and leads to the bathroom which comprises a bath, toilet and wash hand basin. The inner hall also provides access to a larder cupboard and a door opening out to the front of the property. 

To the first floor are two bedrooms. The largest bedroom runs the width of the house with built-in wardrobe and views of the front garden. This bedroom also benefits from having an ensuite shower room comprising a shower, toilet and wash hand basin. The second bedroom is a good size single with a window to the rear and window seat. 

OUTSIDE

To the front of the house is an area of lawn, enclosed by hedging, which benefits from sun throughout the day. To the rear is a paved patio and good size garden which is mainly laid to gravel, for ease of maintenance and the ideal spot for outside furniture and entertaining.  A versatile summerhouse, which could also be used as a home office, benefits from light and power and sits neatly at the far end of the garden.  The property benefits from a single garage, in a block of three, along with a driveway and further parking space.
