Characterful two-bedroom rural retreat with field views and off-street parking.
Thatched period cottage with strong character features
A charming two-bedroom thatched cottage in Arrington, offering authentic period character and expansive field views. The semi-open plan kitchen-diner and a striking feature fireplace create a warm, sociable ground floor ideal for relaxed village living. A handy office and walk-in wardrobe add useful storage and flexible workspace.
This freehold mid-terrace home sits on a small, well-kept garden with off-street parking to the rear. The village location benefits from low crime, good nearby primary and outstanding secondary schooling, and scenic countryside surroundings — perfect for anyone seeking a peaceful rural base.
Buyers should note the property’s age and traditional construction bring practical considerations: the thatched roof and oil-fired boiler require ongoing maintenance, and the EPC rating is 43 (E). Interiors have low ceilings and generally small rooms, which suit cottage character but limit large-scale adaptation. Broadband speeds are reported slow and mobile signal is average.
For someone downsizing or looking for a character-filled rural retreat, this cottage balances historic charm, useful modern touches and attractive views. It will particularly suit buyers prepared for routine upkeep and those who value village life over modern, open-plan proportions.
