Dating from circa 1790, this three-bedroom cottage blends genuine period character with practical updates and a rare south-facing 3/4 acre plot opposite Ramsdale Golf Club. The house sits back from the road behind electric gates, with a gravel driveway, generous parking and a brick garage with power and plumbing. A detached outbuilding and planning permission for a double garage and workshop add clear scope for enlargement or ancillary use (subject to the permissions granted).
Inside, exposed timber beams, original fireplaces and a snug with a solid-fuel burner create an unmistakable cottage atmosphere. A newly created kitchen with insulated timber flooring and French doors opens to the garden, while a bright conservatory provides a calm, light-filled sitting or dining area overlooking mature lawns and borders. Three double bedrooms upstairs are well proportioned; two retain original cast-iron fireplaces.
Practicalities are set out plainly: heating is by an LPG boiler and radiators (LPG supply, not a communal system), glazing was renewed post-2002, and the solid brick walls are presumed uninsulated. There is one family bathroom only. The property has been maintained by the current owners but, as with many pre-1900 buildings, ongoing maintenance and sympathetic updating may be needed.
This cottage will suit someone seeking peaceful retirement living or a character home in substantial grounds with development potential. Its rural, semi-secluded position offers countryside lifestyle while remaining a short drive from local amenities and schools. Note the local area records above-average crime and the site lies within protected Greenbelt countryside, which affects future planning options.
