Plough Bank Cottage is a thoughtfully restored period home that combines original character with modern appointments. Exposed beams, oak floors and a bay-windowed sitting room with a cast‑iron woodburning stove give the house immediate charm, while a recently fitted shaker-style kitchen with island and range cooker delivers comfortable, practical family living. The property is arranged over cellar, ground, first and second floors, giving flexible space for children, guests or a home office.
Practical features include LPG central heating, sealed-unit double glazing, a useful utility room and cellar storage that has power and light and potential for conversion. Outside, a small private parking area and front terrace provide low-maintenance outdoor seating; a tiered rear garden and courtyard offer al fresco dining and attractive rooftop and valley views from the upper rooms.
Important considerations: the EPC is low (rating 13, band G) and heating is via LPG rather than mains gas — buyers should factor energy running costs and potential upgrade works into budgets. The house is multi-storey with many stairs and may not suit those with limited mobility. The property sits in an ageing, rural village with very low local services but excellent mobile signal and average broadband.
Offered freehold and chain-free, this cottage will suit a family or couple seeking a characterful village home with sensible modern comforts and conversion potential in the cellar or loft. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the standard of finish and the elevated countryside views.
