An extended period home that provides charming living accommodation arranged

has the benefit of secondary accommodation with Stable Cottage, all set within
glorious gardens and grounds on the edge of the pretty village of Clee St
Margaret.
Accessed from the lane via a gated driveway onto a gravelled parking area, a
lych gate opens onto the terrace to the rear of Carpenters Cottage and the
entrance that opens into the conservatory as well as leading into the
farmhouse style kitchen. The kitchen is beautifully designed with a good
number of fitted cupboards and drawers with an Aga at the heart of the home.
From the kitchen is an elegant drawing room that has an open fireplace and
French doors that overlook the garden. A dining hall is at the centre of the
house with a study / snug providing extra living space. The conservatory is to
the rear of the house and overlooks the terrace.
On the first floor set off the landing are three double bedroom suites all
having fitted or built in storage as well as either an en suite bath or shower
room.
Stable Cottage
Set a short distance from the house is a converted stable block. Converted to
provide an annex for the owners' parents but would make an ideal holiday let.
It provides superb additional accommodation on one level. There is a fitted
kitchen, sitting room and bedroom with a shower room. At the end of the annex
is a laundry / utility room.
Garden and Grounds
The gardens are beautifully landscaped and have been a passion of the current
owners who have ensured that there are a variety of well stocked borders,
specimen trees and mature shrubs set to the rear of the house with a stream
running through and bridges and pathways connecting the different areas.
Within the garden there is a summer house, green houses, folley and a garden
store. The garden and plot on this side of the lane extend to about 0. 9 acres.
The gravelled driveway provides plenty of parking and to the side is a barn
that provides garage / workshop and a wood store.
The Paddock
On the opposite side of the lane is a paddock that extends to about 0. 72
acres. It is well fenced and has a water supply. It has been divided up to be
used for livestock (the current owners have had chickens, ducks, sheep, and
goats over the years of living at Carpenters Cottage) as well as orchard and
vegetable garden.
Services
