A lovely three bedroom detached cottage situated in the heart of Coggeshall benefitting from an amazing rear garden and ample off road parking behind double gates.
\rThis charming period cottage, originally built in the 1700s, retains much of its historical character. It features three double bedrooms spread across the ground and first floors, complemented by a bathroom, kitchen, sitting room, and dining room on the ground floor. Characteristic elements include exposed beams, studwork walls, and a large inglenook fireplace with a recently fitted wood-burning stove in the sitting room. The dining room boasts an attractive Victorian-style gas fireplace set in a previously open fire.
The previous owners enhanced the property by constructing an extension to the south, adding a spacious main bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and double doors opening to the rear garden. The property also offers ample parking with shingled space to the side, secured by electric double gates. The garden is thoughtfully divided into several areas, featuring a patio adjacent to the ground floor bedroom and a covered outdoor kitchen equipped with cupboards, granite countertops, an integrated fridge, BBQ, and pizza oven. The rest of the garden is meticulously maintained, flourishing with typical plants and shrubs of a stunning period home.
