The enchanting 2 Butts Cottages presents an extraordinary opportunity to own a
distinctive three - bedroom cottage, thoughtfully extended to preserve its
unique character.
Situated on the outskirts of the village of West Alvington, most rooms enjoy a
wide southerly aspect over the large south - facing terrace and level lawned
gardens with open and elevated views of the fields and countryside beyond. The
original traditional stonebuilt cottage was totally renovated and the
extension was completed in 2016. The mix of two styles has created a charming
fitted modern home full of character with gas - fired underfloor heating
throughout, a hot water system assisted by solar panels, and double glazing
bringing an enjoyable environment.
An open porch leads into the entrance hallway with storage for shoes and coats
through to the inner hallway with two - story green oak framed glass panels. The
kitchen/Dining room benefits from a triple aspect with double doors leading
into the garden. The kitchen is fully fitted with hardwood worktops, a
Hotpoint double oven, Stoves gas hob with an extractor over, plumbing for the
dishwasher, and space and plumbing for a large fridge/freezer.
Utility room with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer,
Worcester gas boiler, and Gledhill mains pressure hot water cylinder which is
connected to the solar thermal roof panels. The sitting room forms part of the
original cottage and features a large stone fireplace with an inset
woodburning stove, slate window seat, and beamed ceiling.
An oak staircase leads to the first floor to the galleried landing offering
farreaching countryside views and a vaulted ceiling with remote operate Velux
roof lights. Main bedroom with vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and trusses,
two built - in folding - out wardrobes, varnished floorboards, and an en - suite
shower room. The second bedroom has a triple aspect affording far - reaching
countryside views and part vaulted ceiling. Third single bedroom with built - in
wardrobe. Family bathroom with double - ended bath and separate shower cubicle.
The property is accessed via a gated and fenced graveled parking area
providing ample space for several cars. There is an impressive insulated
double garage which has the additional amenity of a much sought - after
ancillary en - suite bedroom or office located above. This is currently used as
a guest suite with a triple aspect affording far - reaching countryside views.
There is electric heating and located in an under - eaves cupboard is the mains
pressure hot water cylinder with electric immersion heating. The garden is
southwest facing and is mainly laid to lawn and planted with shrubs with a
paved terrace area accessed from both the kitchen/dining room and living room.
