Description
Attractive Grade II listed property with delightful cottage garden, in a no-through road setting
Dating back to the 18th century, with later architectural and interior enhancement, Underwood Cottage offers a charming and unique living environment with a wealth of character features showcasing the building’s heritage. The whitewashed elevations, pastel-painted window frames and doors, and dentilled eaves, create an appealing façade, and inside the retained period features include exposed timbers and brickwork, rustic terracotta tiled flooring and vintage fireplaces.
Interlinking accommodation is arranged across the ground floor, with the versatile rooms including a spacious sitting room centred around a fireplace with wood-burning stove, a dining room on the opposite side of the roomy reception hall, and a charming kitchen/breakfast room. Fitted with cottage-style cabinetry topped with wood work surfaces, the kitchen has attractive wall-tiling and a Belfast sink, with an adjoining area suitable for informal dining (currently used as a playroom). The wing adjoining the kitchen, offers a flexible-use room with vaulted ceiling and fireplace which currently presents as a family room where French doors offer a connection to the outside. This room links to a bedroom with a picture window offering an outlook to the pretty garden. A shower room completes the accommodation on the ground floor.
A stairway rises from the hallway to a landing providing access to two bedrooms and a large beautifully-appointed, family bathroom featuring a contemporary freestanding tub and a shower cubicle. Outside
A paved pathway leads to the entrance porch and is flanked by areas of low-maintenance gravel. To the side of the cottage, a garden with verdant planting provides a sense of seclusion with gravelled and paved settings offering opportunities for outdoor dining and relaxation in sunshine or under the dappled shade of the trees. Garden features include a brick-built barbeque and outdoor fireplace, timber arbour, floral and fragrant climbing plants, vegetable garden, and a splendid collection of lush, architectural shrubs.
