Dating back to the 1830s, this historical whitewashed brick cottage was formerly used as servants quarters for the neighbouring property and has retained many traditional features such as dark timber beams, handsome fireplaces, traditional wood panel doors and a flagstone courtyard.
Extended over the years, the property boasts surprisingly spacious accommodation with its four double-sized bedrooms, a generous yet cosy lounge, as well as a dining room and a conservatory providing plenty of flexible space, perfect for a growing family.
Over the past 20 years the current owners have carried out a range of upgrades and within the last year, they have updated the cloakroom and family bathroom and installed an impressive log burner within the handsome inglenook fireplace in the lounge.
The accommodation is well arranged over three floors and comprises of an entrance hall leading to a dining room, a family lounge, and a beautiful kitchen, as well as a conservatory overlooking the rear garden on the ground floor.
On the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a bathroom, while from the first floor landing, an additional staircase flows up to the second floor to provide access to two further double bedrooms.
Upon opening a blue gate from the road, you will be greeted by a private walled courtyard to the front of the house with flagstone paving and a fabulous brick wood-fired pizza oven.
This provides a secluded sun trap in the mornings and enjoys an array of cottage planting featuring a mature hydrangea, a range of perennials, fragrant jasmine and climbing roses.
The courtyard provides access to a log store and to the blue cottage entrance door with attractive glazed panelling.
The fully-enclosed rear garden provides a charming cottage-style setting with a range of seating areas and an array of well-established flowering plants.
From the conservatory French doors, there is a circular paved terrace with a trickling water feature and a gravel area beyond has stepping stones which weave to a lawn area and past an old flagstone terrace which basks in the afternoon sunshine, perfect as a further seating spot.
Mimosa Cottage also has a driveway for one vehicle.
