Welcome to Gate Cottage, situated on the edge of the much sought after Tilt conservation area with its open common land, traditional local pub and direct access onto open countryside. This delightful period detached cottage, built in the post war period, exudes timeless charm and character, yet has been subtly adapted to meet the needs of modern living. Upon entering the cottage via an attractive stone porch, you'll be captivated by the old-world elegance and cosy, welcoming feel. Sympathetically extended in the past, it now offers a spacious layout featuring four bedrooms, two bathrooms, an attractive kitchen/breakfast room and a handsome sitting room with a pleasant garden room area. There are period features throughout, most noticeably the superb brick inglenook fireplace in the sitting room with its oak surround, creating a striking focal point. This room has the benefit of an adjoining garden room with triple aspect and French doors opening directly onto the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is arranged in an L-shape with French doors opening onto a pretty paved courtyard which leads to the main garden. At the far end of the breakfast room area there is a cosy snug with views to the front. There is also internal access to the garage. A balustraded staircase takes you to the first floor landing from which the bedroom accommodation is arranged. The principal bedroom is a generous size with double aspect front and back and an en-suite bathroom. This room, together with the further two double bedrooms, has fitted wardrobes. The fourth bedroom is currently in use as a study. The main garden boasts a favourable south-westerly aspect and is arranged to the side of the house with an area of terrace leading from the garden room. Bordered by mature shrubs, it is extremely peaceful and secluded with an area of lawn and well stocked beds. At the rear, there is an attractive area of planting leading to a private paved courtyard where scope for further development awaits in the form of an outbuilding housing three sheds, brimming with potential, subject to the necessary consent. Whether you envision a creative studio, a serene retreat or a practical workspace, the possibilities are endless.
