Dating from 1750 and unlisted, Summerhouse Cottage is a pretty green sandstone and part rendered cottage under a pitched slate roof with its gable end to the road. In 2000 the property was imaginatively extended to create the kitchen/breakfast room and the principal bedroom and bathroom which has enhanced the accommodation. Summerhouse Cottage has sensibly configured accommodation with nicely proportioned reception rooms and a well fitted kitchen/ breakfast room with oak flooring, a gas fired AGA, Neff induction hob, fitted Siemens dishwasher and stone worktops. The property has been well looked after in recent years and has an attractive bay window in the dining room with a window seat, open fireplaces in the dining room and sitting room (with an inset woodburner) and four bedrooms. Other attributes include stone flooring in the hall, utility room and cloakroom. The property is approached off the street through timber gates onto a gravelled drive leading to a stone and slate garage with light and power and a concrete floor. There is an additional gravelled area outside the cottage for car parking. The garden lies to the side and rear and provides a delightful backdrop for the cottage; there is an attractive York stone terrace which is accessed from the French windows in the kitchen/breakfast room with a wonderful outlook over the fields.
