BROOK COTTAGE Brook Cottage is an utterly charming 3 bedroom traditional country cottage dating back to the 16th century, situated in the pretty village of Cuxham. The interior displays much of the timber framework of the original building, tiled flooring together with an inglenook fireplace in the sitting room. The property is beautifully presented throughout and has recently been rethatched. The approach is via double wooden gates at the side of the house that open on to a generous gravel driveway.
The main entrance to the property is at the back of the house where the fabulous walled garden is also situated. There is a lovely lawn surrounded by pretty borders, a variety of shrubs and fruit trees, a keen gardener would much enjoy the space, which is complete with a store/workshop tucked away at the bottom of the garden.
Into the house through the stable door and the entrance hall leads you into a good sized, traditional kitchen with shaker units, oak worktops and French doors leading out to the terrace and garden beyond. There is a charming dual aspect sitting room with quarry tiled flooring and open fireplace. Snug and cosy but with plenty of space, this is a room to enjoy on a cold winter's night with the fire roaring in the hearth. Adjoining the sitting room is the separate dining room with ample room for a family table and chairs.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two generous doubles with vaulted ceilings and dual aspect windows, allowing light to spill in, as well as a family bathroom. The second bedroom overlooks the garden and benefits an ensuite shower room and the third bedroom is neat and simple.
This is a stunning home in a delightful location, Brook Cottage is a very special cottage and not to be missed.
NB There is historical planning to add a single storey extension leading off the double doors from the kitchen.
