Three bedrooms across approximately 1,054 sq ft (97+ sqm)
Large rear garden with countryside outlooks
Requires full renovation throughout, including cosmetic and structural work
System-built walls likely uninsulated; insulation upgrade recommended
Partial single glazing noted; double glazing present but install dates unknown
Oil boiler and radiators—private oil supply, higher running costs
Slow broadband and average mobile signal in this rural area
Village location near good schools, leisure and equestrian amenities
Set in a sought-after village location, this three-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers wide countryside views and a large rear garden. The house occupies about 97+ sqm (1,054 sq ft) across two reception rooms and three bedrooms, with scope to reconfigure and modernise to suit family life or rental demand.
The property is a renovation project throughout: original and dated fittings remain, windows are partially single glazed, and the building appears to have system-built walls with no known insulation. Heating is by an oil-fired boiler and radiators — practical in rural locations but higher running costs and a private oil supply should be considered.
Benefits include a generous plot, village amenities and nearby schools (including an Outstanding-rated primary and a Good secondary), low local crime and attractive countryside outlooks. Drawbacks are material and clear: the house needs full renovation, glazing/insulation upgrades, and broadband speeds are slow — all factors that will affect budgets and timescales.
For buyers wanting to create a long-term family home or an investor seeking refurbishment potential in a popular rural market, this property offers strong scope. Factor in renovation costs, replacement or upgrade of heating and windows, and garden clearance when assessing value.
