in detail
Nestled in the picturesque village of Shirley, just outside Ashbourne, this beautifully restored Grade II listed cottage blends timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades. The front garden planted with lavender, alliums and a magnificent wisteria, to inside with its exposed beams, charming fireplaces, locally made oak doors, stone tiled floors, to its contemporary fittings and ideal setting in the heart of the village, this is a home full of warmth and personality.
The cottage has been completely renovated, taken back to brick, damp proofed & timber treated throughout, completely rewired and new oil fired central heating system, boiler and new radiators installed throughout.
Just a short walk over the road to The Saracens Head, a delightful, cottage style, public house.
The front door opens into the dining room, a characterful space with tiled flooring underfoot, a window to the front elevation, and a traditional brick fireplace that adds to the room's cosy, welcoming feel. Exposed beams overhead and a radiator complete this space, making it ideal for both everyday living and intimate dining.
Once used as the village reading room many years ago, this now beautifully converted sitting room is a character-rich space brimming with charm. A front-facing window allows natural light, while a striking exposed brick fireplace houses a multi-fuel burner. The room has been thoughtfully renovated and comprises of carpeted flooring, which complements the original ceiling beams above, preserving the heritage of the space while offering all the practicality of modern living.
To the rear of the home lies the kitchen, styled with stone flooring and classic shaker-style units. A Belling cooker adds a country-style touch, while exposed ceiling beams and a rear window keep the space full of charm and natural light. A wooden door provides direct access to the rear garden, perfect for those warm summer evenings. The kitchen leads through to a practical boot room, ideal for everyday storage and outdoor wear, and a spacious under stairs cupboard providing yet more storage.
The boot room provides generous storage for coats and shoes and benefits from having stone tiled flooring, a radiator and wall mounted coat hooks.
The main bedroom is a spacious double with a window to the front, carpeted flooring and a radiator.
The second bedroom features carpet underfoot, a radiator, spot lighting, window to front and an attractive exposed brick chimney breast making it ideal as a double guest bedroom, nursery or home office.
