The Property
Tucked away on the edge of Bylaugh Woods, with far-reaching views across open farmland, The Cottage offers a wonderful blend of character, space and versatility in a peaceful yet well-connected setting, just moments from the heart of Bawdeswell.
Extending to over 3,000 sq. ft., this is a home that effortlessly adapts to changing needs, whether that be multi-generational living, working from home, or simply enjoying the abundance of space on offer. The reception rooms are varied and inviting, each with their own personality. From cosy evenings beside the inglenook fireplace in the sitting room, to relaxed gatherings in the dual-aspect family room with its wood-burning stove and garden views, the house lends itself beautifully to both everyday living and entertaining. A number of additional rooms provide flexibility for a study, snug or hobby space, ideal for modern lifestyles.
The kitchen/breakfast room sits as a sociable hub of the home, thoughtfully fitted with solid wood work surfaces and a range-style cooker, with space to dine and gather. Nearby, the dining room offers a more formal setting, while the utility room and cloakroom add practicality.
Bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged across both floors, offering flexibility and privacy. The principal suite is particularly generous, complete with its own en suite bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms are well-served by a family bathroom and ground floor shower room. A useful dressing room or nursery adds further adaptability.
Externally
Outside, the setting is just as appealing. Approached via a private road, the property opens onto a shingled driveway with ample parking and garage. The gardens wrap around the house, extending to approximately half an acre (sts), and are bordered by open fields, creating a wonderful sense of space and seclusion. A well-positioned patio area provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining and entertaining, all while enjoying the surrounding countryside.
The Cottage is a home that offers both charm and flexibility in equal measure, perfectly suited to those seeking a quieter pace of life without compromising on convenience.
