The Accommodation

Pekin Cottage is a quietly handsome home built in 2009 yet designed with a sensitivity more often associated with older houses, it has the reassuring presence of a cottage that feels settled and established. The home opens into a welcoming entrance hall that immediately sets a tone of light and warmth and a discreetly positioned cloakroom/WC. This leads seamlessly into a stunning open-plan kitchen and breakfast room fitted only three years ago. Here, elegant shaker-style cabinetry is paired with solid wood, work surfaces, integrated dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer and a classic white butler sink. Characterful exposed timber beams and a central breakfast bar island create a social hub. The living accommodation continues into a generous sitting room, where a feature brick fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove serves as a cozy focal point. This space flows effortlessly into an impressive, vaulted, family/dining room featuring a large skylight and French doors that offer a direct connection to the rear garden. 

The first floor continues the theme of understated elegance and character, comprising three bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a delightful retreat with a window that offers views over the surrounding area. It benefits from ample space for storage and the added luxury of a private en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is a double, similarly bright and airy with views over the garden. The third bedroom is a versatile space, currently utilised as a charming child's room, and features a large skylight. Serving the bedrooms is a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a classic wood-panelled bath, wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail. 

Outside

To the front, the property enjoys a picturesque and quintessentially English setting, framed by mature trees. This prime position within the village is complemented by a driveway providing off-road parking and access to a substantial detached garage. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a private sanctuary with multiple zones for relaxation and outdoor dining. A paved patio area, provides an intimate spot for morning coffee, while a larger sun deck and secondary stone terrace offer ample space for hosting summer gatherings. The grounds are further enhanced by a manicured lawn, a variety of mature trees, and practical features including a greenhouse, a timber garden shed and raised planter beds.
