Why We Like It: Positioned in the desirable village of Brightwell, is this delightful, Grade II listed detached , character cottage dating back to the 17th century. It was originally a public house and then the village shop before being converted into a home full of character retaining many features from its previous uses. Including two inglenook fireplaces, one of which is an open fire while the other has a sympathetic, yet modern, Scandinavian wood burning stove. Over the years the property has been developed and improved to include a gallery style Second Kitchen/Utility Room with a built in oven and hob. The main country style kitchen has been hand built from solid wood with a traditional, gas fired Aga. The cellar has been tanked out and decorated to create a useful office/playroom or fourth bedroom. There is also a wine store and a WC.
What it offers: Upon entry into the middle of the property the lounge is to your left, designed around the feature fireplace it is a cosy yet spacious and bright double aspect room, to the right of the entrance is a second reception room with an open fire that lends itself to being a formal dining area. From here is access to the cellar, the utility room and the study. The kitchen is at the end of the cottage and was formerly the old village store retaining the Victorian shop windows looking into the garden which have been restored to their former glory by the vendor. Upstairs are three double bedrooms with an ensuite bathroom to the master and built in wardrobes. Bedroom two has a walk in wardrobe and bedroom three is double aspect flooding the room with natural light. The final feature of the upstairs is the bathroom with a classic claw footed, Victorian style, roll top bath. Outside is a traditional cottage garden with a variety of fruit trees including a greengage and a productive apricot, and two separate paved seating areas. The path meandering through the garden leads to a traditional, open barn style garage with oak beams and cladding. There are two secure storage rooms, lighting & power. In front of the garage is parking for several vehicles. The majority of the windows have been replaced or restored to include secondary double glazing. Electrics were updated six years ago and there is gas central heating to radiators.
