The Property
Lavender Cottage is a charming, stone built, end of terrace, period cottage, situated close to the edge of the thriving village of Middle Barton. The cottage is oozing with character features, such as exposed stonework and timbers in the cosy sitting room and a dramatic vaulted ceiling in one of the bedrooms. The current owner has enjoyed entertaining in the large and sociable dining kitchen, as well as relaxing at the end of the south-facing garden, enjoying the view over the adjoining countryside. All this charm is complimented by a fabulous bathroom, re-fitted in a contemporary style and the practicality of private off-road parking.
