Description
Fox Cottage is a characterful semi-detached period cottage with a deceptively spacious interior positioned down a quiet no-through lane in the very desirable village of Hawkesbury Upton and within short walking distance to the village shop, pub and primary school. The cottage is accompanied by off-street parking, a south-facing garden and a garage arranged at the rear. Extending to around 1,100 sq.ft, the accommodation is surprisingly spacious and well-proportioned, and presents the next owners the opportunity to put their stamp on the cottage with general upgrading. A front porch opens to the large reception room which has an impressive inglenook fireplace at the focal point with a wood-burning stove inset. Arranged at the rear overlooking the sunny garden, the timber fitted kitchen is open plan to a breakfast room. There is a separate utility room with rear access. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, two of which with built-in wardrobes. The bathroom has a shower over the bath.
To the front of the cottage, there is off-street parking for one vehicle over a paved driveway, whilst there is a vehicular right of way over the neighbours driveway to provide access to the garage. The garage has a side door connecting to the garden. The south-facing garden benefits from a good degree of privacy and is laid mostly to lawn with gravelled seating terraces and a small pond.
