The property

This delightful detached pan-tiled cottage forms part of the peaceful conservation area of Crichton Village situated amidst unspoiled open countryside. With origins dating back to 1880, the property is deceptively spacious with great individuality and scope for improvements. It offers cleverly extended accommodation (152sqm) all on one level which will easily adapt to meet the changing needs of modern family life. A range of outbuildings (including a double garage) offer great scope for storage or potential business opportunities. The very comfortable living room boasts a wood-burning stove and wide patio doors opening onto a central courtyard. There is a dining hall and open-plan kitchen with ample storage cabinets and an integrated double oven. The remainder of the accommodation comprises four good sized bedrooms, handy toilet compartment and a family bathroom providing both a bath and shower cubicle. The partly floored loft space is insulated and accessible via a ladder. Oil-fired central heating and double glazing make this a warm and cosy home. The gardens (1/3 acre) are well presented and incorporate a large lawn and several patio areas. The garden is well stocked with herbaceous shrubs providing all year interest and colour, and it overlooks the adjoining fields and offers beautiful countryside views. A private septic tank is located near the rear boundary. There is a double garage with adjoining stores. One of these stores contains the oil tank.
