The Cheynes is a Grade II Listed cottage dating from the 18th and 19th centuries, part of which was formerly the village shop (List Entry No. 1344298), and features attractive weatherboarded elevations. The property benefits from fenestration across four floors to the rear, enjoying a southerly aspect that creates a wonderfully light and airy interior. This is beautifully balanced by five windows and a glazed porch to the front elevation, forming a cosy principal bedroom and an inviting lounge, ideal for homely evenings around the wood-burning stove. This delightful cottage encapsulates everything that is special about listed homes, offering period features in abundance without sacrificing the practicalities of modern family living. The accommodation includes two principal bedrooms, both with en-suite facilities, a luxuriously appointed shower room and two further bedrooms, providing four in total. There are two spacious reception rooms with original fireplaces and heavy exposed beams, alongside a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room with a range of integrated appliances, a separate utility room and a cloakroom. Outside, the property enjoys a stunning south-facing cottage garden with a sun terrace adjoining the house, complemented by rear vehicular access, a double-length driveway and a garage, currently used as a storeroom. Sold with no forward chain.
