This Grade II listed five-bedroom cottage blends striking Tudor Revival character with a thoughtful modern renovation, ideal for growing families seeking space and period charm. High ceilings, bay sash windows and a large kitchen-diner give generous, light-filled living areas for everyday life and entertaining.
The principal bedroom includes an ensuite and the property can easily accommodate king-size beds throughout. Ground-floor living is flexible: a reception room, sitting room, a large kitchen/breakfast room with log burner, a utility and a ground-floor shower room—plus a versatile room with patio doors that works as a fifth bedroom or home office.
Outside, a large private driveway provides off-street parking for several vehicles and the well-planned rear garden offers lawn, seating areas and privacy. The town centre location places shops, cafés, schools and countryside routes within easy reach, making this a practical base for family life.
Buyers should note the listed status — alterations will be restricted and may involve additional costs or consents. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, and as with any pre-1900 cob-walled house, ongoing maintenance should be expected despite recent renovation. There are two bathrooms serving five bedrooms, which may be a consideration for larger households.
