Likely needs updating and modernisation internally
Set on almost half an acre in a peaceful village, this chain-free period semi-detached cottage offers genuine rural living and scope to personalise. The home retains character features such as exposed beams and a fireplace, and benefits from off-street parking, a conservatory and uninterrupted countryside views — a rare combination for this location.
Accommodation includes a living room with beams and fireplace, a fitted kitchen, a study/ground-floor bedroom and a four-piece bathroom; two further bedrooms occupy the first floor. A fitted static home on the plot provides extra guest space or secure storage. The large grounds create scope for gardens, smallholding use or a significant extension subject to planning (planning not confirmed).
This property will suit buyers seeking space and rural lifestyle rather than a move-in-perfect finish. There is clear potential to update interiors and reconfigure living spaces to modern tastes, so budget and planning flexibility should be considered. No flood risk is recorded and local schools and low-crime levels support family life in the area.
Viewings are recommended for those who value land, privacy and character and who are prepared to manage renovation or extension work to unlock the site’s full potential.
