A substantial garage, capable of housing a further four cars once cleared, completes an already impressive arrival.<br/><br/>Step through the front door into a striking entrance hall measuring 22ft x 6ft10, where a beautiful staircase rises to the first floor. The ground floor unfolds with real elegance: a cosy sitting room warmed by a wood burner, and a superb dining room boasting intricate ceiling detailing, ample space for a grand piano, and a genuinely showstopping atmosphere for entertaining. A side passage provides useful access to both the cellar and garage, while the classic country-style kitchen, complete with its own fireplace, flows into a bright conservatory and onward to a boiler room housing a substantial 150,000 BTU system. Below, a generous double cellar hints at the property's history, with a former passage through to the adjoining cottage.<br/><br/>Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms await. The master and second bedroom are both exceptionally spacious with fitted storage and lovely views over the courtyard and gardens, while a third bedroom offers flexible single accommodation. Two bathrooms serve this floor, including a well-appointed family bathroom and a separate WC with bidet. A characterful linen room with fitted shelving also provides secure, lockable internal access through to the cottage ideal for multi-generational living or simply keeping the two properties connected when desired.<br/><br/>The self-contained cottage, entered independently via the rear yard, is a real asset in its own right. A welcoming lobby leads into a charming living room with exposed beams and a brick fireplace, alongside a fitted kitchen and pantry. Upstairs, a generous double bedroom with a striking chimney breast sits alongside a bathroom (with shower over bath) and separate WC, with the internal door to the main house located here.<br/><br/>Currently operating as a highly-rated Airbnb with hundreds of glowing guest reviews, the cottage generated £10,000 last year at just 60% average occupancy let by vendors who, by their own admission, weren't looking to maximise it. For a buyer looking to make more of this ready-made income stream, the scope to scale this further is significant.<br/><br/>This is a property of real scale, character, and versatility a fantastic family home with a valuable, proven letting opportunity attached.<br/><br/><b>UNCONDITIONAL LOT</b> Buyers Premium Applies Upon the fall of the hammer, the Purchaser shall pay a 5% deposit and a 5%+VAT (subject to a minimum of £5,000+VAT) buyers premium and contracts are exchanged.
