Sellers Ford is a splendid detached cottage that has attractive stone elevations and offers beautifully presented accommodation across two floors. The property displays a wealth of characterful features including original fireplaces and overhead beams and benefits from enclosed and private gardens. The property is set in a rural position yet is within easy reach of local amenities and enjoys wonderful far reaching views over the neighbouring countryside.

The main reception room is the 26ft sitting room, which welcomes plenty of natural light through windows to the front and rear, and includes a fireplace fitted with a woodburning stove. The formal dining room has flagstone flooring and a stone-built inglenook fireplace, which is also fitted with a woodburner. Towards the rear, the bright kitchen provides plenty of storage in bespoke wooden units to base and wall level, space for the necessary appliances, an integrated hob and oven and an oil-fired Rayburn that also supplies hot water. The kitchen has a stable door that leads out onto the garden. The ground floor is completed by a useful downstairs shower room that provides access to the adjoining workshop which could provide further utility or storage space if required.

The first floor has four well-appointed bedrooms, three of which are doubles of similar proportions. The smaller fourth bedroom could be used as a dressing room or home office. The first floor has a modern family bathroom with a bathtub and a separate shower unit with an additional cloakroom also servicing this floor. All of the accommodation on the first floor enjoys wonderful views over the property’s gardens and the countryside beyond.
