FANCY A BIT OFTHATCH?

RHOOSE: £410,000

What: Just down the road from The Old Village Farmhouse in the Vale of Glamorgan is this sweet three-bedroom detached thatch.

This home has also been lovingly restored, offering a new owner contemporary living but within a characterful surrounding.

The downstairs has a dining room with quarry tiled floor and an inglenook fireplace so large a new owner might be able to host a small dinner party inside it.

The exposed stone and solid wood mantle oozes history, with the addition of a log burner inside ensuring that this room is always cosy and comfortable.

The more formal sitting room also has the addition of a log burner nestled into the exposed stone and brick fireplace, topped off with a very commanding wood mantel.

The kitchen has been chosen in wood to complement the past history of the property but offers a new owner all the integrated appliances expected for modern living.

Completing the downstairs is a handy bathroom and utility room.

Tucked away in the corner of the dining room, under a stone arch, is the original flagstone staircase leading up to the first floor.

Here, nestled beneath the magnificent thatch, a potential buyer will find three bedrooms and a further shower room. How: This charming cottage is on the market with estate agent Watts & Morgan, call 01446 774 152 to find out more.
