THE PROPERTY 1 Maie Cottage is an attractive semi-detached home situated in the heart of Uploders, enjoying a generous garden and delightful far-reaching views along the valley. The property is entered via a useful porch, providing space for coats, boots and everyday storage, which in turn leads into the welcoming sitting room. A spacious and comfortable room, the sitting room benefits from an electric fireplace and serves as the heart of the home. Adjacent is a ground-floor bathroom fitted with a bath, WC and wash hand basin.
Beyond the sitting room, the accommodation flows into a dining area and kitchen, both of which are light-filled and well-proportioned spaces ideal for modern family living. The dining area enjoys the added character and warmth of a wood-burning stove with back boiler, providing hot water to heat the radiator on the first-floor landing. To the rear of the property, a delightful conservatory overlooks part of the garden and provides an excellent additional reception space, with direct access outside.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms and a further single bedroom. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious and benefits from a dual aspect, allowing for an abundance of natural light and ample space for freestanding furniture. The second bedroom includes a useful built-in storage cupboard, housing the hot water cylinder and offering additional linen and storage space.
OUTSIDE The generous garden is a particular feature of the property, offering a wonderful space to relax, entertain and enjoy the surrounding countryside. At its lower end, a beautiful, terraced seating area adjoins a charming rose garden and provides an ideal suntrap, while the shade of a mature and productive apple tree offers a welcome retreat during the warmer months.
The remainder of the garden is principally laid to lawn and rises gently, taking full advantage of the stunning views across the Asker Valley and the rolling countryside. There are two extra fruit trees higher up the garden and a useful garden shed provides practical storage.
