COTTAGE SETS IDYLLIC SCENE
Three bedroom traditional stone cottage set in the pretty village of Parwich in the Derbyshire Dales is on the market for offers above £400,000
NEW Cottage in Parwich is the perfect rural idyll, being a traditionally styled stone and tile cottage which also benefits from double glazing and central heating. It is ideal for a professional couple or a young family, but would also suit those looking for an active retirement or someone who wants a high quality weekend or holiday retreat.
An original panelled front entrance door leads to the reception hall, which has a terracotta tiled floor and staircase off to first floor level as well as a deep shelved storage recess with coat pegs and a ground floor cloakroom.
From the reception hall, a small paned glazed door leads to the dining room, which could also be used as a snug, with its oak effect floor and adjacent window to the conservatory. A short flight of steps lead to the sitting room with its beamed ceiling and feature fireplace along with double glazed French doors to the rear.
The conservatory looks out on the rear garden, and a small paned glazed door leads to the principal reception room which has been formed by the incorporation of part of the original garage and could be used as a drawing room, dining room or study. It has a window overlooking the rear garden, a most attractive Hopton Wood stone fireplace with matching hearth and extensive fitted book shelving.
A terracotta tiled floor is a feature of the kitchen with its comprehensive range of in-built units, granite work surfaces and appliance space with plumbing for automatic washing machine, integrated dishwasher and recess for a fridge/freezer.
There is an integrated Neff electric oven and flanking Neff four-burner ceramic hob set within a tiled recess having extractor hood over.
Bedroom one has a double glazed Velux roof light and eaves storage cupboards while the guest bedroom suite comprises fitted wardrobe and storage cupboards and an en suite shower room with three piece suite in white.
Bedroom three, or the dressing room has a range of spacious fitted bedroom furniture including a fitted dressing table.
The spacious principal family bathroom has a white suite including a Victorian style low flush WC, basin, bidet and panelled bath.
The property occupies a wide fronted plot bounded by natural stone walling with block paved pathway, gravel area and planted rose bed. A flanking block paved driveway leads through double opening electronic timber gates to a useful block paved side parking area.
A pair of double opening timber doors on the front of the house adjacent to the driveway gates open to provide access to the boiler room/ store. Being originally part of the garage (the remainder of which is now incorporated into the principal reception room) this houses the free standing oil fired boiler for domestic hot water and central heating and provides a useful storage facility.
To the rear of the cottage there is a further block paved pathway area which in turn leads to the slightly elevated rear garden. This is laid primarily to lawn and approached by short flights of stone steps.
The garden affords a high degree of privacy and seclusion, includes timber summer house, aluminium framed greenhouse and block paved patio. This extends round to the other side of the property where there is a further area of elevated garden upon which stands a most useful timber garden shed.
