Tenure: Freehold
This instantly appealing character cottage occupies a prime Forestside location enjoying open meadow and Woodland views to the rear, a short stroll from local nature spot ‘The Outwoods’ and falling within the Hollywell primary School catchment area.
The impressive interior blends character features with contemporary style and has been extended, with the accommodation now over three floors making this a great home for the professional couple or young and growing family wishing to walk to school or head off to work with nearby exit commuter routes including M1 Motorway at Junction 24 just a short distance away.
Enter through the solid oak entrance door and into a front facing lounge centred around a focal point open fireplace with exposed brick and oak lintel and offering the opportunity to install a wood burner if desired. Wood laminate flooring spans from the lounge and through into the open dining kitchen where there’s plenty of space for a dining table and/or sofa arrangement, with this space centred around a period cast iron fireplace and French doors leading out into the garden ideal for summer entertaining.
The kitchen area enjoys views of the rear garden and woodland beyond and has a quality shaker style kitchen which complements the cottage features. This includes a built-in stainless steel electric double oven, six ring gas hob and extractor, microwave shelf, integrated dishwasher and plumbing for washing machine.
On the first floor there are two double bedrooms with number one overlooking the rear and with an over stairs storage cupboard. Bedroom two has a cleverly designed over the stairs alcove and the bathroom is also on the first floor which features a spa style bath with glass shower screen, mixer shower, tiled floor and splashbacks, ceiling spotlights and extractor.
Bedroom three is on the second floor currently doubling as a home office with enough space to accommodate a double bed, spotlights, storage to the roof void and two skylight windows.
The small row of cottages that front Nanpantan Road include a stone front wall with central gate leading to the front entrance door and with most neighbours parking directly outside on the road. Access through the left-hand neighbouring property leads to the garden for number 222 with an additional gate from here into the right-hand neighbours garden which we are told is used occasionally for bins etc. The long lawned garden enjoys borders and shrubs, a patio immediately to the rear of the property and an additional patio at the very end of the garden which enjoys a dry-stone wall and of course the meadow and Woodland views.
