About this property
Situated in the quaint Hampshire village of Twyford is Cornforth Cottage, a traditional detached property retaining some period features, but brought into the 21st century with quality fittings and appliances. The house is divided into two separate cottages, brought together to make this five bedroom house via an interconnecting door, making it a great family holiday destination. On the ground floor of each lodging is an open-plan living space consisting of a kitchen, dining area and a sitting area, with appliances including an induction hob, electric oven, washing machine and dishwasher among the rest in each. Choose to dine at the long dining table with bench seating in the first living area, perfect for a celebratory evening meal, or make use of the other dining space which has a sweet country style breakfast table for a morning coffee and the paper. Settle down in the evening in one of the sitting areas, both complete with two sofas to relax on and a TV for entertainment. Two double bedrooms rest on the ground-floor, one enjoying an en-suite shower room, and a ground-floor bathroom hosts a fabulous roll-top bath with a separate walk-in shower, so those less able will have access to beautiful ground-floor living. Up the first staircase you can find a twin bedroom and a double bedroom with a pull-out bed, both rooms elegantly decorated with exposed beams featuring throughout, and chandelier light fittings hanging from above next to the Velux windows. Also on the first floor following the second set of stairs, discover another twin room, able to be a double bed on request, and a pull-out bed here too, with plenty of space just like the other four bedrooms. Enjoy relaxing outdoors on the patio, with patio doors leading from both living spaces, you can come together for an evening drink in the sun or a midday alfresco lunch.
