Large character home on 0.82 acre with south-facing gardens and garage.
Substantial 3,169 sqft living space across multiple reception rooms
Honeysuckle Cottage is a substantial four-bedroom Wells cottage sensibly extended and re-modernised to provide 3,169 sqft of flexible family accommodation. Set well back on a highly regarded private lane, the house sits within an enclosed 0.82-acre plot with a large, south-facing lawn, paved terrace and sunken garden — ideal for children, pets and outdoor entertaining. Internal highlights include a generous dual-aspect sitting room with cast-iron wood burner, a spacious bespoke kitchen/breakfast room with Aga and integrated appliances, and multiple reception rooms that adapt to family life or home working.
The principal bedroom benefits from a vaulted ceiling, freestanding bath, walk-in wardrobe and en-suite; bedroom two has its own en-suite and a distinctive circular balcony overlooking the gardens. Practical features include a separate utility room, study, ground-floor cloakroom and extensive gated parking leading to a detached double garage with adjoining workshop (power and light). The plot is screened by mature trees providing a high degree of privacy.
This property suits buyers seeking a substantial, characterful family home in a very affluent, low-crime area and a quiet hamlet setting. Broadband is slow and mobile signal average — worth noting for those who work from home and rely on fast connections. The house has been re-modernised but, as a 1930s period property of this size and plot, ongoing maintenance and garden upkeep should be factored into running costs.
Freehold tenure, no flood risk and convenient access to three well-rated local primary schools add practical reassurance for families. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, light and seclusion this countryside cottage provides.
