A compact, characterful Grade II listed thatched cottage arranged over two floors, ideal for buyers seeking a manageable historic home in rural Warwickshire. The house dates from the 17th century and retains original timber framing, a unique well in the entrance hall, exposed beams and an eyebrow dormer — features that give the property strong period appeal.
The accommodation is simple and well planned for two occupants: open-plan living and dining with a cosy gas fireplace, a character kitchen with a stable-style door, a ground-floor study and two double bedrooms upstairs. The principal bedroom benefits from a separate dressing room, and there is a single bathroom serving the house.
Outside, the large mature garden, established grape vine and apple tree create an attractive private setting. Practical advantages include two detached garages, drive parking and an external shed — useful for storage or hobbies. Heating is gas-fired to radiators and double glazing has been installed.
Important practical points: this is a listed building and sits in a conservation area, so any alterations will face constraints and potential additional costs. The cottage has low ceilings and small room sizes typical of its age, an EPC rating of D and limited broadband in the area. There is one bathroom only. These factors suit buyers who value historic character over modern open-plan space or who are prepared to accept maintenance and listed-building obligations.
