This Grade II listed thatched cottage blends period character with thoughtful modern updates, set in the heart of Aldbourne village. The double-aspect sitting room features an impressive inglenook fireplace and exposed beams, while two double bedrooms upstairs retain original charm. The extended kitchen/dining/family room is a standout: bespoke cabinetry, quartz worktops, an Everhot cooker and roof lantern create a bright, sociable hub with direct garden access.
Practical layout includes a versatile ground-floor study/bedroom three, downstairs contemporary bathroom, and useful laundry/boiler cupboard. Outside, an enclosed courtyard garden with shed provides private outdoor space; double gates allow access and off-street parking behind the garden. The property is freehold and pleasantly located close to village amenities, an outstanding primary school, pubs and local shops.
Important considerations: the house is Grade II listed, which can restrict alterations and may add cost and delay to renovations. The cottage is constructed with original solid walls (likely uninsulated) and a thatched roof, both requiring specialist maintenance and ongoing upkeep. EPC D reflects older construction; modern heating is mains gas boiler and radiators.
This home will suit buyers seeking period character in a prosperous rural village — families wanting local schooling and community amenities, or downsizers wanting a compact, characterful house with modern living space. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the space and quality of the rear extension and the cottage’s historic features.
