Chain-free four-bed cottage in Rattlesden with large gardens and renovation potential..
Detached four-bedroom village cottage
Set in the sought-after village of Rattlesden, this detached four-bedroom cottage offers a genuine chance to create a comfortable family home in a serene rural setting. The house retains period character and benefits from UPVC windows, oil-fired radiators and generous private gardens front and rear. Off-street parking for around three cars and a garage/storage area add everyday practicality.
The property requires updating and renovation throughout, making it a suitable project for buyers who want to add value and personalise living spaces. Accommodation includes two reception rooms, a basic kitchen, ground-floor bathroom, four first-floor bedrooms and a cloakroom. At approximately 926 sq ft the layout is compact for four bedrooms, so reconfiguration could improve flow and space use.
Important practical points are straightforward: the sale is chain-free, tenure is freehold and Council Tax band D applies. There is a high flood risk for the area, which will affect insurance and potential renovation works, and the property is sold as needing modernisation. Oil heating and single bathroom provision are facts to consider when budgeting for upgrades.
For families attracted to village life, Rattlesden offers good local amenities including a primary school rated Good, two pubs, a community shop, pavilion and easy access to countryside walks. Buyers seeking a move-in-ready home should note the renovation needs; those wanting a project will find strong potential in location, garden space and parking.
