Internally, the home beautifully blends period character with comfortable modern living, featuring well-proportioned rooms filled with natural light. The property offers flexible accommodation, making it ideal for both family life and entertaining. There are also potential options here to put your own stamp on the property, with scope to reconfigure the accommodation to suit your individual lifestyle requirements
The property benefits from two principal entrances: one to the right-hand side opening into a spacious, square entrance lobby, and another to the left leading directly into a welcoming snug. This cosy space features an attractive fireplace and flows openly into an adjoining room currently used as a dining room, though it could equally serve as an additional sitting room.
A further generous reception room offers excellent flexibility - it could function as a formal sitting room, home office, or even a ground floor bedroom suite, particularly as it is complemented by a modern en-suite shower room.
The centrally positioned kitchen/breakfast room is comprehensively fitted with wood-fronted units and features an Aga, creating a warm and traditional heart to the home. This space is further enhanced by a large walk-in larder and a separate utility room.
Upstairs, there are four bedrooms. The two largest benefit from en-suite facilities, while another bedroom is accessed via a private dressing room, which also leads to a bathroom -making it a strong contender for the principal suite. The layout offers flexibility, allowing buyers to choose the configuration that best suits their needs.
Gardens & Exterior
The gardens are a standout feature, providing a wonderful sense of privacy thanks to a stone wall and mature shrubbery bordering the property. Accessed via a five-bar gate, the grounds offer a delightful mix of established planting, open lawn, and inviting spaces ideal for outdoor entertaining or peaceful relaxation.
Externally, the property also includes a double-width garage with a pitched roof. To the right, there is a dedicated planting conservatory, while to the left, substantial outbuildings and storage areas offer a wide range of potential uses.
Markwick Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive home, rich in character and history, set within an idyllic and highly sought-after location.
