A rare opportunity presents itself to purchase an exceptional and truly individual home — a delightful three-bedroom detached character cottage accompanied by a generous two-bedroom annex and an impressive leisure suite with a heated indoor swimming pool. Set within around 1.3 acres of private grounds, this charming residence offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful semi-rural setting with convenient access to nearby amenities, schools, and transport links. Inside, the main home beautifully blends rustic character with modern comfort. A welcoming entrance hall leads to a spacious, triple-aspect sitting room featuring an inglenook fireplace with an impressive inset log burner and exposed ceiling beams. The large open-plan kitchen and dining area form the heart of the home, complete with oak cabinetry, granite work surfaces, and integrated appliances, with French doors opening directly onto the garden. An adjoining snug with a second log burner offers a cosy living space and is semi-open-plan to the kitchen diner, while the striking orangery, filled with natural light and overlooking the gardens, provides a perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining all year round. The first floor offers three generous bedrooms, each rich in charm and character. The principal suite includes fitted wardrobes, French doors leading to a private rear-facing balcony, and an elegant en suite shower room. Two additional bedrooms are well served by a stylish family bathroom featuring both a bath and a separate shower. The detached annex is a superb addition, ideal for guests, extended family, or multi-generational living. To the ground floor it includes a spacious games room and bar (which could serve as a sitting room), a WC, and a modern kitchen and dining area brimming with character, featuring a beamed ceiling, exposed brick wall, flagstone flooring, and two sets of French doors to the garden. The first floor offers a versatile open-plan living room with a vaulted, beamed ceiling and mezzanine level above, in addition to a three-piece bathroom and a spacious double bedroom with a balcony to the rear. Adding to the sense of luxury is the stunning indoor heated swimming pool and leisure suite. With full-height glazing, a sauna, and ample poolside seating, it is the perfect space for both relaxation and recreation. Outside, the grounds are extensive and thoughtfully landscaped. A large tarmac driveway provides ample parking and leads to a detached four-car garage, an additional single garage, and a substantial workshop and storage building. The rear garden is a true highlight, beautifully designed with a Creteprint patio, timber decking, an impressive ornamental koi pond, children’s play area, and even a private astroturf football pitch — perfect for family life.
