**Description: **
An inspiring and beautifully presented semi - detached four bedroom period home
that historically formed two cottages. This skilful conversion has created
fabulous accommodation that has been lavishly modernised, all without
compromising the abundant charm, as displayed in the inglenook fireplace with
an original bread oven, beamed ceilings, and the original oak frame believed
to date from the 15th century. 1 & 2 Ebenezer Cottages have been the subject
of considerable refurbishment by the preceding and present owners.
The accommodation comprises Front door into the Entrance Hall with a
limestone - tiled floor; dual - aspect Family Room with views over both the front
and rear gardens, a fireplace with an inset cast iron wood burner, hand - built
solid wood shelving units and cupboards, French Doors to outside, engineered
oak wood floorboards; dual aspect Kitchen/Dining Room with bespoke handmade
wall and base units, integrated oven with an induction hob over, integrated
dishwasher, space for an American fridge/freezer, French Doors to outside,
engineered oak wood floorboards; the dividing wall has been removed, creating
an open - plan, dual - aspect Sitting Room featuring an inglenook fireplace with a
bespoke canopy and original bread oven. The original front door of 2 Ebenezer
Cottages has been replaced with a double - glazed window to further enhance the
light and spacious feel of the cottage.
A Staircase from the Entrance Hall gives access to the First Floor double
Bedrooms 2 and 3 and the Family Bathroom with a panel bath with a shower over,
a vanity handwash basin, a low - level WC, tiled floors, and half - tiled walls.
To the other side of the property, a staircase from the Sitting Room gives
access to a large First Floor Landing that has formerly been used as a Study;
Principal Bedroom with a freestanding roll - top Bath, ample storage cupboards,
and a passageway cleverly created through the wardrobe of the Principal
Bedroom to that of Bedroom 2, connecting the accommodation on the First Floor.
A staircase from the Landing leads to Bedroom 4.
