Characterful four-bedroom home with private garden near village amenities.
Part-thatched, character cottage with exposed beams and stone fireplace
A striking part-thatched cottage in the heart of Dolton, Old Forge Gallery blends original character with usable modern living. Exposed beams, a stone fireplace with new wood burner and a large 30-foot open-plan sitting and dining room create a warm, welcoming ground floor focused on light and village views.
The house offers four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a ground-floor bedroom with adjoining shower room suitable for multigenerational use. The kitchen has been updated with integrated appliances and a quartz sink, while a sunroom and recently fitted French doors provide direct access to a low-maintenance, enclosed rear garden with patio and a small raised lawn.
Practical details to note: the property uses oil heating (oil tank on site), broadband speeds are reported as slow, and tenure details are not confirmed in the paperwork — all should be checked with your solicitor. The full market price is £425,000; purchasers aged 60+ may be eligible for Homewise’s Lifetime Lease (illustrative Lifetime Lease guide price shown as £284,750), which lets buyers purchase a share of the property value and typically reduces upfront cost depending on age and circumstances.
Set in a quiet village with very low crime, off-street parking and a carport, this home suits someone seeking a character-filled retirement or a village family house with scope to enjoy the history and peaceful surroundings. Viewings recommended to appreciate the period features and adaptable layout in person.
