Fairview is an immaculate three bedroom period home with generous private parking where character, comfort, and charm all combine to create an idyllic country dwelling.
Tucked away in the much-loved village of Charlton Adam, this enchanting detached period cottage has been beautifully cared for and is presented in immaculate condition throughout. It offers the perfect blend of character and comfort, with three double bedrooms, a sumptuous bathroom, and wonderfully inviting living spaces.
From the moment you arrive, the pretty front garden sets the tone — brimming with cottage charm and dotted with trees and foliage that invite you to pause and take in your surroundings. Step inside, and the warmth of this home unfolds immediately around you: blue lias flagstones underfoot, original painted beams overhead, and a welcoming flow that leads from the porch to the open living room with fireplace and wood burner into the hand-built kitchen with electric Aga and dining area. The additional ‘back kitchen’ with butler sink, space for fridge/freezer, integrated dishwasher, and excellent range of storage cupboards provides functionality without losing any of the traditional feel of the rest of the cottage. A snug overlooking the front garden, with another open fireplace creates an additional cosy room for winter evenings.
To the rear, a light-filled garden room opens onto the private gravelled courtyard — a magical setting for al fresco dining and quiet morning coffees. Completing the ground floor is the convenience of a cloakroom.
Moving upstairs, the charm continues as the elm wood staircase leads to three inviting double bedrooms, all with picturesque countryside views. The luxurious bathroom has a bath and separate shower, with underfloor heating bringing an added touch of indulgence.
Fairview is a rare treasure — a home of character, light, and soul, with every corner designed for comfort and delight.
Outside Picturesque gates lead through to the front lawn with a pathway, beautifully maintained borders and an apple tree leading to the main entrance. A five bar gate opens to a gravel driveway with an EV charging point. The stunning courtyard, a spacious outbuilding (ripe with potential) and log store sit to the rear with a generous garage with power and built in work benches to the side of the property. To complete the picture an additional seating area catches the evening sun, offering the perfect spot for a glass of wine at the close of the day.
