Oulton Lowe Green is a Grade II listed thatched cottage set in 3.4 acres of paddock and garden, combining historic character with recent sympathetic renovation. The interior shows original timber beams, low-to-mid ceilings and a layout of traditional rooms updated in 2023, including a refurbished kitchen, cloakroom and family bathroom. Practical comforts include a new boiler (2024), fast broadband and off-street parking.
This is a rural home for buyers seeking charm, space and scope. Planning permission exists for a triple-bay, timber-framed garage and to extend the kitchen with accommodation above, creating a fourth bedroom and additional bathroom. The large plot currently grazed offers potential for orchard planting, meadow or recreational use, and the paved patios and pond create an attractive outdoor setting.
Buyers should note material constraints: the property is Grade II listed, which will complicate alterations and may increase maintenance and specialist repair costs. The house has a single bathroom and retains lower ceiling heights in places; the thatched roof also typically carries higher insurance and upkeep demands. The location is a quiet hamlet setting with low crime and average mobile signal — ideal for rural living but less convenient for those needing urban immediacy.
Well suited to families or purchasers after a character home with development potential, this newly renovated cottage balances storybook appeal with modern updates. Interested buyers should arrange a survey and check consents given the listed status and existing planning permissions.
