THE AGENT SAYS... Jessamine Cottage is a beautiful Grade 2 listed doublefronted cottage (ca. 1750) with Hamstone elevations under a slate roof. A particular feature of the property is the beautiful wrap-around garden (partially walled) which has a useful modern studio building, currently used for home exercise. The house has been immaculately maintained by the current owners (after an exhaustive renovation by the previous owners) and recent updates include: a new boiler; new electric circuit; re-sealing the back wall and tanking (inside and out); re-decoration; and a full service of the plumbing. THE PROPERTY A storm porch protects the entrance from the elements and leads into the hall. The sitting room has a simple fireplace with an inset multi-fuel stove and built-in cupboards either side. The dining room has a more ornate fireplace, also with multi-fuel stove, an under-stairs cupboard, and door through to the kitchen. The kitchen has a tiled floor, range of fitted base units, wall shelves, pantry, space for a fridge-freezer, and room for a small dining table. There is a modern electric AGA and 'Domino' LPG two-burner hob. A door leads off the kitchen to a small utility/boot room (with plumbing) which opens to the garden. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms with long range views at the front. Bedroom one has built-in wardrobes and bedroom two has a replace and loft access. The bathroom is a great size with a freestanding bath, separate shower, and eaves storage. OUTSIDE The property is approached by a footpath flanked by quintessential cottage garden borders. Adjacent to the property is a sheltered area under a vine-clad pergola which gives way to an area of well-maintained lawns. The garden is partially walled and surrounded by attractive cottage style beds and borders. There is also a stone-built former privy. The wooden studio has power, lighting, and a small solid-fuel stove for warmth in the winter. Services Mains water, electricity, drainage, oil-fired central heating.
