The main bedroom is to the front had has exquisite views across thatched rooftops to the rolling hills beyond, the perfect view to enjoy with a cuppa in bed! There are stylish built-in wardrobes and draws across the whole of one wall and reclaimed oak floorboards (believed to have been reclaimed from an old brewery) which give this room a unique look.
The second bedroom is a single room and is located at the rear. Again, this room benefits from built-in storage.
The bathroom is fitted with a stylish white suite, including a shower over the bath, and features gold tapware and striking navy accent walls which compliment each other so well.

The Owner Loves - “I feel incredibly lucky to have found and lived in Poppy Cottage. I remember when I first came to view the property on a hot summers day, making my way along the brick pathway through the cottage garden and past the gorgeous pear tree which was full of pears!
It’s cliche I know, but I fell in love with this cottage immediately, it has such a lovely feel to it and the previous owners had renovated Poppy Cottage with an obvious amount of compassion.
Waking up on the first morning with that view and the church bells ringing in the distance…bliss! The open fire during the winter is super cosy too!
It’s been absolutely perfect for for me, Ramsbury and the surrounding area is totally stunning in all seasons with some beautiful walks and an abundance of wildlife to see, having the river Kennet chalk stream on the doorstep is lovely…look out for the brown trout. With so much to offer for a relatively small village, it’s quite literally picture book perfect. But this chapter for me has to end (and a perfect chapter it’s been) as I make the move further west to Somerset. I’ll miss this dear little cottage but I’ll definitely not be a stranger to Ramsbury.
I have no doubt that the next lucky owner of Poppy Cottage will enjoy it as much as I have’
