Description
Spring Bank Cottage is a delightful and characterful home commanding an elevated spot within the highly sought after conservation village of Swerford, approximately four miles from Soho Farmhouse. Dating back to the late 1970's to early 1980's , this picturesque property is constructed from Horton stone, blending seamlessly with its idyllic surroundings. Over the past eight years, the current vendors have carefully maintained and sympathetically updated the home while offering ample potential for new owners to make it their own.
The ground floor is both welcoming and spacious, benefitting from an abundance of natural light and a seamless flow between living spaces. The sitting room is charming and a comfortable retreat, complete with a log burner, perfect for the colder months. The well appointed kitchen features a Qettle tap and electric Everhot and built in appliances, adding warmth and character to the hub of the home, ideally positioned next to the dining room, which boasts a delightful window seat providing a fantastic spot for reading or taking in the breath taking views of the rolling countryside. A conservatory provides a tranquil space to enjoy the surrounding scenery too, while a useful, external utility area and a downstairs cloakroom add to the home's practicality. A versatile bedroom above the garage with an en suite bathroom offers flexibility, whether as a guest suite or additional living space.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three generously sized bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms benefit from en suite bath / shower rooms and built in storage, ensuring comfort and convenience. A modern family bathroom also facilitates the first floor, completing a thoughtfully designed layout.
The outdoor space at Spring Bank Cottage offers a serene and private haven to enjoy the spectacular countryside setting. A rooftop terrace provides panoramic views, making it the perfect spot for evening relaxation as the sun sets over the rolling hills. The low maintenance garden is mostly laid to lawn and enhanced by an array of mature trees, vibrant flowers and a patio area, ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. Practicality also meets convenience with parking for numerous vehicles, along with a single garage for additional storage or workshop potential.
Spring Bank Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a charming home in one of the areas most desirable villages. With inviting living spaces and stunning countryside views, this property is perfect for those seeking a blend of comfort, character and potential to personalise.
