Stylish Modern Three-Bedroom Cottage With Garden Buildings, Air Source Heating And Scenic Village Setting

Set just a short walk from the local village store, Robin Cottage is a modern, semi-detached property, perfect for rural living. Built around eight years ago with modern construction and energy efficiency in mind, it offers smart finishes, private garden areas and a warm, welcoming feel throughout.

To the front, a pitched slate-roofed porch leads into the central hallway – a bright, neutral space finished with wood flooring and a large built-in storage cupboard. The same flooring continues into the sitting room, where soft grey walls and crisp white finishes create a calm, comfortable and easy-to-style setting. There’s space for two sofas and a TV unit, with natural light giving the room a relaxed, open feel.

The kitchen and dining area sits beyond this, offering modern cream units complete with long chrome handles and wood-effect acrylic worktops. A five-burner gas hob sits beneath a stainless steel extractor, while an integrated double oven is neatly housed in a tall unit. The sink sits below a window, and there’s space and plumbing for a dishwasher and other appliances. Ceiling spotlights add a clean finish to the kitchen, which flows into the dining area. This is a bright space with a full-length window and fully glazed door opening to the garden. There’s room here for a family-sized dining table and chairs and a wood burning stove brings warmth and character to the space.

The ground floor also contains a bedroom – a good-sized double, with neutral wall tones and a soft light-coloured carpet. A floral patterned feature wall adds texture and a built-in wardrobe with sliding frosted glass doors provides storage without cluttering the space.

Also on the ground floor is a spacious shower room, finished with bright white painted walls and grey wetwall in the shower enclosure. It includes a mains-fed shower, a wash hand basin and a toilet, all neatly arranged to keep the space easy to maintain.

Upstairs, the first floor landing is a versatile space that currently houses a computer desk but could just as easily suit a pair of chairs and a small table, a storage unit or even a compact sofa. A radiator keeps the area warm, making it a comfortable and useful extension of the living space.
Two further double bedrooms are located on this floor. One is finished in soft green with a grey-and-white feature wall and includes two built-in wardrobes with sliding doors. The other is slightly smaller, painted in pale grey with a single built-in wardrobe and soft neutral flooring.
The main bathroom is bright and functional, with a white bath and mains-fed shower above, fitted with a glass screen alongside to prevent water escaping. A wash hand basin and toilet complete the room with a Velux-style roof window bringing in natural light from above.
Outside, the home sits on a good size plot with garden ground to the front, side and rear. Raised beds at the front and side offer scope for planting or growing vegetables, while gravel and paved paths keep the space practical. At the rear, a natural rock embankment is planted with shrubs and trees for added privacy and greenery.
The home enjoys a number of outbuildings, including a large timber-framed shed with plenty of storage space, a woodstore with corrugated roof, and a superb summer house currently set up as a cosy outdoor lounge. Complete with sofas and coffee table, it’s the ideal place to enjoy peaceful surroundings and quiet evenings.
Heating is provided by an air-to-water heat pump supplying underfloor heating to the ground floor and radiators upstairs. Hot water is also supplied by the system. Windows and external doors are PVC double glazed while the PVC roofline cladding reduces maintenance.
Robin Cottage offers the rare combination of modern efficiency, flexible living space and a peaceful village setting, all wrapped in a home that’s ready to enjoy. With quality finishes, modelled outdoor space and practical features both inside and out, it’s an ideal fit for a wide range of buyers looking for a lifestyle rooted in comfort and countryside. Viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate the space and setting on offer.
