Set on the edge of Thorpe Salvin, this three-bedroom period cottage combines original character with considered modern updates. The Whisky Room and stone inglenook garden room offer distinctive, cosy living spaces while a farmhouse kitchen and utility support busy family life. Outside, private cottage gardens and an oversized detached garage with mezzanine storage add practical, everyday benefits.
The principal suite includes a dressing room and spa-style en suite, creating a calm retreat; two further bedrooms and a contemporary family shower room complete the upper floor. Fast broadband and good local schools make the house suitable for homeworking families and those seeking village life within commuting distance of larger towns.
Buyers should note the property uses an oil-fired boiler and has traditional sandstone/limestone walls likely without modern cavity insulation. The EPC rating is F and council tax is above average, so energy improvements and insulation upgrades would be sensible next steps. The house is freehold, built before 1900 and semi-detached, so retaining period fabric while improving thermal performance will be a priority for some buyers.
Overall, this is a character-rich village home with flexible living spaces and garden appeal. It suits a family seeking charm and individuality, or buyers prepared to invest in energy-efficiency improvements to unlock long-term running-cost savings and comfort.
