This charming Grade II listed two-bedroom cottage sits on Cranbrook High Street and offers a rare blend of period character and modern comfort. The recently replaced kitchen and working inglenook with a log burner give immediate move-in appeal, while exposed beams and original fireplaces add character across both bedrooms.
The house is chain-free and well-served by local amenities — bakery, shops and good primary and secondary schools are within easy walking distance. Gas central heating and double bedrooms make this a practical choice for a first-time buyer wanting village living without lengthy refurbishment.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate consent for changes. The building’s timber-frame construction is assumed to have no insulation, so there may be energy-efficiency or maintenance work required. The area records higher-than-average local crime, which may influence security needs.
On balance this cottage suits a first-time buyer or couple who value character, a convenient village location and a ready-to-enjoy home, but who understand the responsibilities of owning a listed, older property and possible retrofit costs.
