Merryweather Cottage is a delightful thatched property with plenty of charming original details.
Throughout the property there are timber ceiling beams and exposed stone and brickwork.
The two entries to the house, the front door and the back porch both have the original doors with very unique rose stained glass pieces inset into the door. The porch at the back of the cottage opens into the comfortable living room with the original fireplace. Through the entry hall there is also a large dining room/kitchen as well as a bathroom. The gorgeous wooden staircase was painstakingly dissassembed saving each piece and even the period nails, all items were carefully repaired, restained or in the case of the handmade nails, straightened out and the entire staircase was put back together. There is one bedroom upstairs and another seating area with fireplace, this room would be ideal as a sewing room with an old fashioned spinning wheel, the perfect combination for a great night sleep.
Historically, this was a cottage owned by three very sweet colourful elderly women, some visitors remark that they can still smell bread and cookies when they go through the kitchen. This property has been proven to be ideal to raise at least one child as there is so much room in the upper floor for beds. The previous owners had taken in a baby and raised her in the house into a happy and quite famous young woman (we do apologize, due to privacy, we cannot reveal her name).
