“Nonesuch Cottage is a
very special place.
Years of hard work, love,
thought and care went
into the building of this
property and it has been
constructed to the highest
of standards. It will suit
someone who is looking
for something unique.
I have loved living here,
enjoyed the garden and
been lucky to have
friendly and helpful
neighbours."
About the Property
Nonesuch Cottage has Hamstone elevations under
a slate roof and was designed and constructed by
a local builder to offer comfortable, adaptable and
spacious accommodation. Attention to detail
throughout is not only reflected in the amount of
storage space within the property but also the
quality of finish. For instance the pantry has a
separate wine store off and there is recessed book
shelving on the half landing as you go up to the
first floor where the spacious airing cupboard
houses the gas fired combination boiler. There is
an impressive inglenook fireplace in the sitting
room with double doors leading off to the veranda
and garden. The kitchen with its bespoke units
and handmade Welsh dresser even has a recessed
spice rack close to the cooking area. The master
bedroom has a dressing area and well appointed
bathroom off and with two attic rooms as well as
two further bedrooms and a shower room on the
first floor there is space
for hobbies and or family
use. The garage also
provides living space
over with the loft
benefiting from central
heating and a telephone
point, possibly the perfect
place for an office/study.
