This compact, delightful brick-built cottage is ideal for a couple with occasional visitors or as an easy-to-keep holiday home. It has all modern comforts and is presented in good condition ready to move in. All ceilings are high with traditional chestnut beams and terracotta tiles. Floors are in traditional monocottura with handmade cotto on the stairs. All windows and doors are in solid chestnut with double glazed units; windows have internal shutters. To the front of the cottage is an area paved in handmade cotto from which French doors open into the living room, a cosy space with alcove shelving and an open corner fireplace. A door leads to the cloakroom with wash basin, a further door leads to the shower, wc and bidet. Off the living room, through an opening, is the kitchen which is minimalist modern with top quality units - self closing doors and drawers, stainless steel work surface with seamless, moulded double sink and mixer tap - and includes Miele fridge, dishwasher, Whirlpool fan oven with gas hob above and top of the range cooker hood. There is additional storage under the stairs with door to match the units. The stairs lead up from the kitchen to the two bedrooms both of which have high ceilings following the slope of the roof. The master bedroom has its own wc and basin plus private access to an ample terrace over the laundry room which has lovely views over the countryside and the lake beyond. The second bedroom is a small double (the present owners have a three-quarter bed plus computer station) but has ample storage and hanging space.
