Summary - GALTONS COTTAGES, GALTONS LANE DY9 9TS
Grade II-listed 17th-century cottage with original beams and fireplaces
Grade II-listed Galtons Cottage is a substantially sized, characterful two-bedroom home set on a large plot in peaceful Belbroughton countryside. The early 17th-century timber-framed facade, exposed beams, original fireplaces and quarry-tiled floors provide authentic period charm, while two reception rooms, a study and a useful utility give flexible living space for family life or countryside retreat.
Practical benefits include a wide gravel driveway, double garage and ample parking for guests, plus a private, established garden with flagstone patio and far-reaching rural views. The layout flows well for everyday use — a kitchen with Belfast sink and AGA links to a dining room with a substantial log burner, and French doors open the living room onto the patio.
Important considerations: the property’s Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance or refurbishment. The solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated and the main heating runs on LPG via a boiler and radiators (no mains gas). The home sits in a high flood‑risk area, and council tax is band G — both factors buyers must factor into insurance and running costs.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking period character and generous outdoor space rather than a modern, low‑maintenance home. It’s strong for families or downsizers who value village amenities, countryside views and flexible reception space, provided they accept the constraints and costs tied to listed, older rural properties.
