Set in the heart of Ringstead, The Old Bakery is a large, detached three-bedroom cottage offering 1,265 sq ft of living space and genuine historic character. Converted from the former village bakery, the house retains period features such as exposed beams and a traditional chimney while presenting well-maintained, move-in decorative order. The layout includes an entrance hall, sitting room with generous light, and a spacious kitchen/dining room with direct access to a private courtyard.
Practical day-to-day advantages include off-street parking accessed from the side drive, a low-maintenance enclosed rear courtyard suitable for children and pets, and proximity to village amenities — a shop, pub and The Downs for walks. The property is freehold, not in a flood risk area, and has modern double glazing fitted since 2002.
Important considerations: heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, and the solid brick walls were built pre-cavity era and are assumed to have no added insulation. The Energy Performance Certificate is E, and there is a single family bathroom serving three double bedrooms. These factors may mean higher running costs and potential scope for energy upgrades.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking village life and character with substantial internal space and straightforward outdoor maintenance. It presents immediate comfortable living with clear scope for targeted improvements (insulation, energy efficiency or kitchen/bathroom modernisation) to reduce costs and add value.
