4 bedroom detached house

A charming detached period cottage located in a tranquil position in the heart of Holmwood Common surrounded by hundreds of acres of National Trust common land. The property is one of a cluster of cottages and enjoys a particularly attractive outlook at the rear over open land and sits in half an acre of its own grounds. This interesting 18th century cottage enjoys a wealth of character features and has been the subject of an immaculate, light-enhancing renovation and extension by its current owners. The result is a house which feels traditional on the surface, but with a refreshingly modern approach to colour and detail.

Entry is gained via a gated pretty cottage style front garden which has been carefully planted with a paved path leading to the front door. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, study, utility room and contemporary style shower room opposite a reception room which could be utilised as a guest bedroom. Adjacent is the sitting room with original exposed brick wall, wooden floorboards and open fireplace. The heart of the home is arguably the kitchen, a voluminous space that incorporates a dining/family area with multiple bi-folding doors that frame the views over the verdant gardens beyond. This provides the perfect space for entertaining and modern family life.

A contemporary style oak and glass staircase ascends to the first floor leading to a master bedroom with vaulted ceiling, built-in wardrobes and modern en suite shower room. Three further bedrooms occupy the original part of the property along with a family bathroom.

Outside, there is a detached garage (currently not is use), driveway offering provision for ample parking and detached outbuilding currently used as a garden store. The gardens are a particular feature of the property being principally laid to lawn with decked area, mature borders, specimen trees, shrubs and a pedestrian gate leading to National Trust Woodland. This garden has a tranquil, rural feel and is home to a range of wildlife and birds making this an idyllic spot to relax and entertain.
