Set well within just over 0.6 acres of mature grounds, this Grade II listed cottage blends historic character with roomy family living. The former ale house retains beams, inglenook fireplaces and ledge-and-brace doors across four double bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms, providing flexibility for family life, home working or guest suites.
Internally there are four generous reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and separate utility, all arranged over generous floorspace (2,292 sq ft). Outside a double garage, long driveway and secluded wild garden offer privacy, parking and scope for informal outdoor living in a peaceful rural setting.
Important practical notes: the listed status brings restrictions and will complicate alterations and modernisation; as an older property it may need ongoing maintenance. Council tax is described as expensive. No EPC is required for this listed building.
For families seeking character, space and countryside seclusion, the house sits in an affluent, very low-crime hamlet with fast broadband and good local schooling nearby. It suits buyers who value period detail and a large plot but accept limits on structural changes and the upkeep older homes demand.
