Charming Cottage With Stunning Garden -
Overview - Nestled on the edge of the highly desirable village of Alne, Malt Kiln Cottage is a charming blend of rustic and contemporary style. Dating back to the 1860s, this delightful three-bedroomed detached period cottage sits on a generous plot with a large, private south-facing garden. Recently updated by the current owners, the home exudes a sense of calm and warmth, making it the perfect family retreat.
Step Inside - As you approach through the timber gate, you are greeted by beautiful cottage gardens and mature trees, offering a sense of privacy and tranquillity. Enter the property through the sunroom doors or the back door into the utility room, ideal for shedding muddy wellies after a countryside walk or bringing in the shopping.
The country-style kitchen features freestanding solid beech units and a sleek stainless steel \"Smeg\" range master, perfect for culinary enthusiasts. This leads to a superb open-plan living room, a light and airy space ideal for family gatherings or entertaining friends. French doors open towards the garden, and the \"Charnwood\" multi-fuel stove adds a cosy touch, perfect for winter evenings.
The music room/hallway offers ample under-stairs storage, while the sunroom at the front provides a quiet spot to enjoy a coffee while keeping an eye on the children playing in the garden.
Upstairs - The turnaround staircase leads to a split-level landing. To the left is the master bedroom, featuring white painted fitted cupboards and ample space for a super king-sized bed. The second and third double bedrooms also boast fitted cupboards. The newly fitted family bathroom has a contemporary feel, complete with a panelled bath and a walk-in shower with a large rainfall shower head.
Outside - Set well back from the road, the garden is private and enclosed, enjoying sun all day long. The gravelled driveway offers ample parking, leading to a block-paved area. The neat lawned gardens are adorned with mature plants and flowering borders, alongside a vegetable garden for green-fingered enthusiasts. There is plenty of space for children's play equipment and a super paved seating area for alfresco dining. Additional features include a single garage with power and two outbuildings, one of which would make an ideal workroom or studio.
Services - LPG heating, electricity, UPVC double glazed windows, main drainage, metered water.
