A cottage with massive potential, 70 Church Lane is intriguingly individual and ready to be transformed into a characterful and charming abode.

It is a home of heritage with a wealth history to share and if walls could talk, there would certainly be a tale or two to tell.

Set well back from the road and squirreled away behind green hedges the cottage has a true country cottage feel and from first glance, you will be keen to dive inside and find out more.

The driveway to the front offers plenty of room to park and there is a nicely sized garden with lots of greenery to provide a warm welcome. Hop down the steps and along the path to the front door and step inside to explore.

As you open the door and take a look around, your will find yourself in the living room which has a beamed ceiling and a traditional feel you can easily imagine closing the curtains on a chilly evening as you settle down in front of the fire and bask in the warmth and history of this unique home.

If you continue from the living room, you will find the kitchen which has a tiled floor as well as an ornate fireplace. There is much you can do here to create something superb – how about installing some beautiful bespoke cabinets and worktops along with top of the range appliances to really make the most of the space. One original feature you may want to include in your design is the Belfast sink which you can find on the left side of the kitchen just think of the rustic menus you could create in here.

In the right-hand corner is a useful area you may want to use as a walk-in pantry of a utility room perhaps.

If you wander to your left, you can have a look at the sunroom – this would make a brilliant additional reception room where you can sit comfortably and enjoy views of the garden, sit with a glass of wine after the dishes are done and enjoy the evening.

Next to this is the bathroom which currently has a corner shower cubicle. You could really uplift and revitalise this room by changing the layout and adding a luxurious roll top bath and a shiny new fixtures and fittings soak away the trials and tribulations of a hard day before snuggling on down relaxing in front of the fire or before retiring to bed.

Talking about bed let’s have a look at the bedrooms so climb the stairs leading from the kitchen – as you reach the top, the first is on your right.

This is a pleasant size and cute as can be. With some improvements it could become a wonderful place to curl up in at the end of the day.
Next to this is generously sized room with lots of natural light and a wonderful fireplace which adds a touch of elegance.

As you wander round this quaint and quirky cottage, be sure to being a pen and paper with you so you can jot down ideas on how to make it yours.
There are so many amazing original features such as fireplaces, doors and light switches you will feel as though you have stepped into a time capsule. But with some imagination (and a little hard work), this could be the perfect blend of contemporary styling and rustic charm.
