Set within a generous 0.19-acre plot on Old Bury Road, this red-brick cottage blends period character with a substantial modern extension completed around three years ago. The ground floor offers flexible living with two bedrooms, a vaulted dining/sitting room with bi-fold doors to the garden, a fitted kitchen and a shower room — useful for multi-generational living or holiday-let use. Upstairs are two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The mature, landscaped gardens and farmland views create a peaceful rural setting for children and outdoor living.
A self-contained annexe/holiday-let already exists, offering immediate rental potential or private guest accommodation; conversion to permanent annexe use would require planning permission. Practical benefits include a large garage, adjacent car port and plentiful parking. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, which supports home working or holiday letting.
Notable practical considerations are the electric storage heating and main fuel being electricity, which can be costlier than gas. The property's double glazing was installed before 2002 and, while the home is described as newly renovated, buyers should confirm specifics of the renovation and any remaining maintenance. There is an inconsistency in age information (historic cottage features are described, but construction details also list 1950–1966), so check title and building records if the exact age is important.
For families this property offers scope to enjoy village life near good primary and secondary schools, abundant outdoor space and flexible accommodation that can adapt as needs change. Investors seeking a holiday-let will find the annexe and countryside location appealing, subject to any necessary permissions.
