Set within roughly 3.4 acres on the edge of Rockland St Peter, this detached clay lump cottage offers classic country character and expansive field views. The house has adaptable, family-friendly accommodation across two floors and substantial outbuildings and paddocks that will appeal to those needing space for hobby farming, equestrian use or future extension (STPP).
Inside, you'll find two ground-floor reception rooms with exposed beams and a cosy inglenook fireplace, plus a large 20'8" kitchen/diner with adjoining utility and boot room. Four good-sized first-floor bedrooms and a ground-floor four-piece bathroom provide immediate practical living, while the internal layout offers straightforward scope for modernisation or reconfiguration to suit multigenerational or contemporary family use.
Externally the plot is the standout feature: gated driveway with multiple parking spaces, detached garage, carport, large barn and an extensive rear garden with vegetable plots, lawns and a paddock. The septic tank, oil tank and soakaway sit within the boundary — convenient for off-grid living but important to budget for ongoing maintenance.
Practical drawbacks are clear and should be factored in. Heating is oil-fired, glazing is mostly double but not guaranteed throughout, and broadband speeds are very slow — a genuine consideration for home working. The cottage is habitable as-is but will benefit from updating to unlock its full potential. Overall this is a rare countryside opportunity for buyers seeking land, privacy and scope to improve.
