Half‑acre character home with large garage/office — period charm with modern family living..
Grade II listed cottage c.1685 with strong period features
A rare Grade II listed cottage dating from c.1685, set on approximately 0.5 acre with sweeping, wrap‑around gardens and a large driveway. The house combines genuine period character — exposed beams, wattle and daub, original fireplaces — with substantial modern interventions by the current owners, including a converted double garage now used as a vaulted family room with bi-fold doors and underfloor heating.
The ground floor centres on a generous kitchen‑diner opening to an enclosed courtyard and stable/store, plus two further reception rooms that retain exposed timbers and feature fireplaces. Upstairs are four double bedrooms with feature fireplaces and an attic conversion providing a fifth double bedroom. The family bathroom is well specified with a jacuzzi bath, dual sinks and underfloor heating, but there is only one shower room for five bedrooms.
Practical benefits include a detached double garage with first-floor office/storage, substantial off-street parking, cellar and good broadband and mobile signal. The property is offered chain free and sits close to local schools, shops and green spaces — an attractive mix for families who value character and outdoor space.
Important negatives are factual and material: the property’s Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and require listed‑building consents; the single family bathroom serves five bedrooms; council tax is high (Band F); and the local reported crime level is elevated. Buyers should verify planning, consents and running costs, and expect ongoing maintenance typical of a historic building.
