Located within the wonderfully quiet Wiltshire hamlet of Ablington, Cherry Tree Cottage is a pretty Grade II Listed semi-rural village dwelling which has been extended, restored and maintained to a high standard and has retained many characterful features. The original cottage is believed to date from the mid 16th century with a more recent (1996) two-storey addition.
The accommodation is not at all small, in fact given the style of the property, all of the rooms are spacious with surprisingly high ceilings; On the ground floor there is a generous double aspect dining room with a flagstone floor, spacious hallways, a comfortable double aspect sitting room with a large inglenook fireplace, charming double aspect ‘cottage' kitchen with a inglenook and bread oven, a large well fitted utility room and a ground floor cloakroom.
The first floor has a galleried-style landing off which is a remodelled family bathroom, a fine double aspect master suite with bespoke fitted wardrobes and ensuite shower room, an excellent double aspect second/guest bedroom and a large single bedroom; all the first floor rooms, including the landing, have vaulted ceilings with exposed heavy beams and timbers.
Cherry Tree Cottage is surrounded on three sides by a lovely private cottage garden with areas of lawn, flower beds, shrubs, greenhouse and seating areas. There is a gravelled drive with parking for several cars in addition to which is a detached garage/workshop which was also constructed in 1996.
