A recently renovated four-bedroom semi-detached cottage set in a peaceful hamlet, ideal for family life and countryside lovers. The house combines period character (cob walls, chimneys) with contemporary fittings: a large kitchen/diner, generous lounge, conservatory and a modern shower room and family bathroom. Re-wiring, solar panels and an EV charger are practical benefits for modern households.
The grounds are a standout feature — a large wrap-around garden with fruit trees, vegetable patch, pond and several powered outbuildings, plus a greenhouse and original precast concrete garage. The property has generous off-road parking for multiple cars and additional rear vehicular access, making family parking and storage straightforward.
Buyers should note a few practical points: heating is oil-fired (boiler and radiators) and the home relies on a private borehole water supply; the sewage treatment plant is shared with the neighbour. Broadband speeds are very slow owing to the rural location, which may affect home working. Double glazing was installed before 2002 and the garage is original precast concrete.
Overall this freehold cottage is move-in ready for families seeking a rural lifestyle with spacious indoor living and extensive outdoor space, but prospective purchasers should consider ongoing costs and maintenance tied to private services and oil heating.
