Owners say, "This is a 17th century original eco cottage with thatch and cobb. We have added a 21st century wing, with modern eco credentials too."
Welcome to this beautiful eco-cottage, with its stunning modern interior, together with the charm of a thatched cottage. This is a perfect balance of time-honoured tradition and contemporary living.
The main house, a quintessential 17th Century thatched cottage, seamlessly integrates with a modern wing, creating a unique and inviting living space.
Step through the loggia and into the KITCHEN, which welcomes you in, a charming room with a Purbeck stone floor, which brings a delightful character to the cottage. This is indeed the heart of this home, a space that combines functionality with style. It's the perfect place to prepare meals, with ample storage and worktop space.
From the loggia, you can also access the UTILITY ROOM which has space for a washing machine, dryer and a small kitchenette for preparing your home-grown fruit and vegetables. It also houses the TESLA™ battery.
The DINING area adjacent to the kitchen is ideal for hosting dinner parties or enjoying family meals. This area flows into a modern and contemporary GARDEN ROOM which has a vaulted glass window allowing natural light to pour in. It also has large patio doors which open onto the garden terrace, really allowing the outside to become part of the inside.
For a quiet evening in, the LIBRARY offers a cosy retreat, and is a favoured spot to curl up with a book. The SITTING ROOM is another welcoming room, there is space for generous sofas and the fireplace, with a logburner draws you to it, radiating heat and a warmth of flames, on a winter's evening.
The PRINCIPAL DOUBLE BEDROOM is located on the first floor, this is an indulgent and private sanctuary away from the rest of the house. With its own EN- SUITE, a glorious slipper bath sits proudly in the corner of the room. It is perfectly positioned for you to soak away the day, whilst taking in the setting sun from the cottage window.
On the ground floor there are two further DOUBLE BEDROOMS one of which has an EN-SUITE, providing a private and comfortable space for guests. The family SHOWER ROOM, like the rest of the home, is finished to a high standard and designed with a sleek, modern aesthetic.
Thatch Cottage comes with a range of outbuildings that add both functionality and charm. The GARAGE/WORKSHOP is a versatile space, perfect for storing vehicles, pursuing hobbies, or even converting into additional living space, subject to necessary permissions.
There is an extensive parking area adjacent to the garage/workshop and further off-road parking to the other side of the cottage.
For gardening enthusiasts, the raised vegetable beds and GLASS HOUSE offer a perfect environment for nurturing plants, while the WOOD STORE ensures a ready supply for the colder months. The GARDEN SHED provides useful storage.
The air source heat pump, solar panels and Tesla™ battery ensure this historic home is not just visually appealing but also energy efficient.
These modern additions provide a sustainable and cost-effective solution for heating and hot water, making this home a perfect blend of old-world charm and 21st-century innovation.
