Fine & Country are delighted to welcome onto the market this quintessential three bedroom detached thatched cottage, which incredibly is not listed, set on the outskirts of Chittlehamholt, yet still within walking distance of local amenities. "Hawthorn Cottage" truly is the epitome of a picture postcard property, having been rethatched during the current vendor's five year ownership, whilst also being extensively renovated throughout. This charming home sits of grounds of approximately 1.75 acres, boasting outstanding lawned gardens, far reaching countryside views, a double garage and off street parking. Further features include an open plan kitchen / dining room with Bifold doors looking out over the expansive gardens and a balcony off the master bedroom, fully encompassing views over the neighbouring fields with an abundance of wildlife.

An entrance hall welcomes you into the home with tiled flooring, access to principal rooms and a door directly ahead of you into a modern three piece shower room suite. The shower room comprises of a close coupled WC, wash hand basin and a roomy double shower.

The kitchen / dining room is positioned on your right as you enter the home and is considered to be the sociable hub of the home. This contemporary room is equipped with a breakfast bar area and ample space for a sizeable dining table and chairs next to the Bifold doors overlooking the substantial rear gardens. Integrated appliances include an eye level double electric oven, microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher, undercounter freezer and an electric hob with an extractor over. There is also plumbing for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer, copious amounts of cupboards and drawers, a sink inset into stylish worktop surface and space for an American style fridge / freezer.

The property boasts two reception rooms, with the smaller sitting room positioned directly off the entrance hall. This warm and cosy room enjoys French doors out to a gravelled patio seating area and a woodburning stove inset into an Inglenook fireplace.

Steps ascend from the sitting room to a beautifully light living room, benefitting from a large feature window, exposed wooden beams and further steps ascending to the first floor landing.

The first floor landing has been cleverly designed to fully incorporate the space on offer. There is a useful study area with an integrated desk, as well as doors to the three bedrooms and family bathroom.

The master bedroom oozes class; possessing a three piece en-suite shower room and French doors out to a balcony area with ample space for a table and chairs. There are also glass balustrades and far reaching views over the surrounding countryside. This really is the perfect spot to sit out in with a glass of wine in the evenings. The vendors have advised us of some of the stunning sunsets they have enjoyed down the years, due to its westerly facing aspect.

Bedroom 2 is another double bedroom, enjoying stained glass windows, exposed beams and ample space for sizeable furniture.

Bedroom 3 is a single room, which is currently utilised as a study.

The luxurious four piece family bathroom suite comprises of a close coupled WC, wash hand basin, free standing bath and a corner shower.

In total, the plot equates to approximately 1.75 acres, consisting of lawned gardens, a variety of flowers and shrubs, vegetable patches, an unused caravan, numerous seating areas and a terrific outlook over the surrounding woodland.

N.B: The small lane leading to the property is owned by a neighbouring farmer. Hawthorn Cottage possesses a right of way over this lane.

Nb: The neighbouring property possesses a historic vehicular right of way to access a field below Hawthorn Cottage which we have been advised is no longer in the neighbours ownership. We have been advised by the current vendors that during their occupation this right of way has never been utilised as there are multiple alternative access points to the field via the road.

Hawthorn Cottage is being sold with a septic tank, which will be made compliant before completion of sale.<br/>From our office leave the square via South Street (B3226), stay on this road for approximately 5 miles and then take the turning on the right signposted Chittlehamholt. Drive up the hill and at the T junction turn left towards the village. On entering the village take the right turn signed Portsmouth Arms. "Hawthorn Cottage" will be found after a short distance on your right hand side.
