Private mature garden and village location ideal for quieter life.
Grade II listed 17th-century timber-framed thatched cottage
This delightful Grade II listed thatched cottage combines authentic 17th-century charm with comfortable modern living. The open-plan living and dining room, cosy gas fireplace and characterful kitchen with stable door create a warm, inviting home ideal for quieter village life. Two double bedrooms — the principal with a dressing room — make the layout particularly well suited to downsizers seeking manageable space without sacrificing character.
The plot is a strong asset: a large, mature garden with established fruit trees, grape vines and a water feature provides a private outdoor sanctuary. Practical benefits include two standalone garages and additional shed space for hobbies or storage. Double glazing and mains gas central heating are in place, offering everyday comfort.
Important practical considerations are straightforward and should be noted. Listed status means repairs, alterations and thatch maintenance are subject to consent and specialist costs; insurance and upkeep are typically higher for thatched, timber-framed properties. Broadband speeds are limited in parts (standard 5 Mb/s noted, with higher speeds estimated but not guaranteed), and the cottage’s historic design includes low ceilings and smaller rooms compared with modern builds.
For a buyer who values history and setting over a new-build floorplan, this cottage offers a rare chance to own a piece of local heritage with comfortable liveability. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the character, garden and practical arrangements in person.
