Four double bedrooms, master with en-suite and balcony
A rarely available period cottage dating from 1840, this detached family home combines original character with thoughtful modern upgrades. Four double bedrooms and three reception rooms give plenty of space for family life, while the master bedroom benefits from an en-suite and private balcony with panoramic woodland views.
The ground floor is arranged for everyday living and entertaining: a large family sitting room with bay and patio doors, a snug with a stone inglenook and wood burner, a well-equipped kitchen with Rangemaster oven, dining room with feature alcove, and a useful utility and cloakroom. Large, mature gardens, a summer house, garage, off-street parking and an external EV charging point add practical outdoor appeal.
Practical points to note: the house is constructed of traditional sandstone/limestone (likely without cavity insulation) so upgrading thermal insulation could be advisable. Mobile signal is reported as none — broadband is fast but phone reception may be unreliable in this rural lane. The property is freehold with no flood risk and broadly affordable council tax banding.
This home will suit buyers seeking a character family house in a woodland setting who are happy to invest modestly in fabric and insulation improvements to enhance comfort and running costs. Local primary schools include two rated Good and one requiring improvement, and nearby outdoor amenities make this attractive for families who value outdoor life.
