This 18th-century detached cottage in Findern blends original period character with practical updates, offering a cosy family home in a quiet village setting. Tasteful decoration and preserved features — exposed beams, brick and Victorian fireplaces, and replica sash windows — give the house charm while recent kitchen work and rewiring bring everyday convenience.
Accommodation is traditionally arranged across two storeys with a lounge, dining room, kitchen, conservatory, three bedrooms, family bathroom and a cloakroom. Rooms are characterful but modest in proportion, so the layout will particularly suit a small family or buyer seeking a period starter or a village downsizer rather than those wanting expansive, open-plan living.
Externally the property sits on a small plot with a mature, fully enclosed garden and paved paths. The house benefits from double glazing and has had electrical and kitchen upgrades, but heating is oil-fired (boiler and underfloor heating noted) and a recently replaced combi boiler is housed in the cloakroom — buyers should confirm heating arrangements and running costs.
Important practical points: the cottage is small overall with limited outdoor space, one main bathroom, and a traditional, compartmentalised layout that may restrict extension without planning. A survey is recommended to verify services and any maintenance needs before purchase.
