Set on an elevated plot in Cauldon Low, this detached 1870 cottage offers broad countryside views and generous outdoor space. The house has traditional character throughout — exposed beams, an open fire and a conservatory — with practical rooms arranged over two floors suitable for family living.
Accommodation includes a farmhouse-style kitchen/diner, separate dining room, living room and conservatory on the ground floor, with three bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. Oil-fired central heating and double glazing are fitted, and there is ample off-street parking plus a detached garage.
The large plot and elevated position are major strengths for buyers seeking privacy, outdoor space and views. The property’s age and construction (stone walls likely without modern insulation) mean upkeep and sympathetic renovation may be required — ideal for someone wanting to improve energy performance and add value.
Practical considerations: broadband speeds in the area are very slow, heating runs on oil (not a community supply), and there is a single family bathroom. Mobile signal is excellent and local schools and market towns are within reasonable driving distance, making this cottage well suited to families seeking rural life rather than immediate urban convenience.
