Behind its traditional red-brick façade and characterful front door, Rose Cottage offers a lovely balance of cottage charm and contemporary comfort. Neutral décor, quality flooring and wooden shutters create a calm, cohesive feel throughout, while the proportions and details of the original cottage give each room its own personality.

The dining area provides space to sit down together, while a barn-style door opens directly onto the courtyard garden, creating an easy connection between inside and out.

Upstairs, the cottage continues to deliver on charm, with two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both offering useful fitted storage. The front bedroom enjoys views over Fieldgate Lane beneath a gently sloping ceiling, with wooden flooring, fitted wardrobes and additional alcove storage. The principal bedroom sits to the rear, overlooking the garden through a broad window fitted with wooden shutters. Generously sized, it also benefits from built-in storage and a walk-in wardrobe.

The bathroom combines character with contemporary comfort, featuring attractive tiling, a freestanding double-ended bath, a separate shower enclosure, vanity basin and concealed-cistern WC.

There is room to arrange different seating areas, whether you picture a sunny spot for your morning coffee, a table laid for lunch with friends or a relaxed evening surrounded by the garden’s colour and greenery. An additional garden outbuilding, currently arranged as a utility room, offers valuable practical space for appliances and a freezer. With electricity and lighting, it adds another useful dimension to this already appealing outdoor setting.
