Gable Cottage is a 17th‑century Grade II listed end‑terrace offering authentic period character and generous outside space in a quiet hamlet. The house retains original features including exposed timbers, an impressive inglenook with wood burner and a vaulted former hay‑barn bedroom that make it immediately appealing to buyers seeking charm and rural views.
The interior has been sensitively updated: a modern fitted kitchen (refitted since 2000 and recently refreshed) provides plenty of storage and integrated appliances, while a practical half‑cellar and a useful workshop add day‑to‑day convenience. The rear garden is a standout asset — a suntrap patio leading to an approximately 120ft landscaped plot with elevated views across open fields.
Buyers should note this is a listed building, which will restrict alterations and may complicate extensions or structural changes. There are steep stairs and low ceilings throughout, and the downstairs bathroom requires updating. Parking is currently off‑street verge parking with gated vehicular access; a garage is possible only with planning consent.
Overall this newly renovated cottage suits a buyer who values historic character and a large garden over a strictly modern layout. Its freehold tenure, large plot, and rural setting make it ideal for a family seeking village life or someone looking for a character second home, provided they accept the constraints of listed status and period proportions.
