A home of true distinction, Meadow Cottage is an extraordinary residence that effortlessly blends timeless character with striking contemporary design. Set on approximately 1 acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, this architecturally designed property extends to c. 270 sq. m. and offers a rare opportunity to own a home that is as unique as it is magnificent. Originally constructed in 1890, the cottage has been meticulously restored and thoughtfully reimagined through an extensive rebuild and extension completed within the last 12 years. The result is a seamless fusion of old and new, where original features have been preserved to celebrate the home’s heritage, while modern finishes and design bring a sense of luxury, space, and light throughout. From the moment you arrive, the property makes an immediate impression. A generous gravel driveway protected by double electric gates provides ample parking and leads to a beautifully presented façade, where traditional cottage charm meets clean architectural lines. A charming stable door opens into a welcoming porch, while pocket doors allow the space to flow effortlessly or be closed off for added privacy. Inside, the heart of the home is a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining, and split-level living space, designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind. The bespoke duck egg solid wood kitchen is a standout feature, complete with a large island, quality finishes, and an abundance of natural light pouring in through well-positioned windows and doors. The living space is bright, airy, and perfectly oriented to take full advantage of the west-facing aspect, ensuring sunlight streams through the home from morning to evening. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a warm yet contemporary atmosphere. The accommodation is equally impressive, comprising four spacious double bedrooms, all with striking double-height ceilings that enhance the sense of luxury and space. Two bedrooms feature stylish ensuites, while the master suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a walk-in wardrobe positioned between the bedroom and ensuite, and the added luxury of uninterrupted views of the garden enjoyed directly from the bed. A central hallway, cleverly designed with pocket doors, can be transformed into an additional living area. Complete with sliding patio doors opening out to the garden, this creates a peaceful and private retreat within the home as well as creating a divide between living quarters and the hub of the home. Upstairs, the converted attic space offers exceptional versatility and character. Currently used as a living area, office, and storage space, it is enhanced by unique triangular windows that frame breathtaking views of the surrounding gardens, creating a bright and inspiring environment. The original cottage features have been lovingly retained and restored, including sash windows, shutters, traditional doors, and the original fireplace crane, adding warmth and authenticity. In contrast, the newer section introduces shaker-style finishes and modern detailing, creating a beautiful balance throughout. Externally, the property is simply superb. The west-facing gardens wrap around the home, offering privacy, tranquillity, and uninterrupted sunshine throughout the day.
