Property description
This charming 16th Century detached Grade II Listed cottage, nestled in a serene semi-rural location on the edge of the picturesque Rothschild Estate in Eythrope, offers an abundance of character, history, and versatile living spaces. Set within approximately one acre of beautifully maintained gardens, the property enjoys a peaceful setting with scenic countryside walks right on its doorstep. With its wealth of period features, including exposed beams, vaulted ceilings, and wood-burning stoves, the cottage seamlessly blends old-world charm with modern comfort.
The spacious interior provides flexible accommodation, arranged over two floors and accessed via two separate staircases. Upon entering through the reception hallway, you are welcomed into a delightful sitting room featuring a striking vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers, a wood-burning stove with direct garden access. The kitchen is well equipped with bespoke cabinetry and opens into a practical utility room, while the dining room with a wood-burning stove offers a warm and inviting space for family meals. The first floor accessed by the second staircase is home to the principle bedroom, complete with a dressing area and en suite. Also on the ground floor is a generous second bedroom with an en suite shower room, ideal for guests or family members, as well as a third double bedroom ensuring ample accommodation for a growing family or visiting guests.
Beyond the main house, the property benefits from two outbuildings that provide additional, highly adaptable space, perfect for home working, leisure, or hosting visitors. The larger outbuilding, once a double garage, has been transformed into a fabulous entertainment area, complete with a full-size snooker table, a bar, and a lounge space. An external staircase leads to a further room with an en suite shower, offering potential as a guest suite or home office. The second outbuilding provides two well-proportioned rooms, a small kitchen area, and a shower room, making it an excellent option for additional accommodation or a dedicated workspace.
The gardens are a true highlight, enveloping the cottage in lush greenery with mature trees, vibrant shrubbery, and deep flower beds creating a private and tranquil oasis. Two ponds, a vegetable garden, and various patio areas add to the appeal, offering delightful spaces for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. The property also boasts a gravelled driveway, providing ample parking for multiple vehicles.
