Generous gardens, versatile outbuildings and genuine countryside views for family living.
Circa 1700 detached cottage with period character and exposed features
Set in around half an acre of mature gardens, this c.1700 detached cottage blends period character with practical family living. The house offers three generous double bedrooms, a cosy sitting room centred on a log-burning stove, and a country-style kitchen with pantry and adjoining utility. Dual-aspect principal and second bedrooms enjoy far-reaching countryside views.
The plot is a standout feature: paved patio, productive vegetable patch, wildlife pond and a range of useful outbuildings. A substantial multi-room workshop with power and plumbing provides excellent scope for hobbies, home-working or conversion to ancillary accommodation. Ample driveway parking and a detached garage complete the outdoor picture.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. Heating is oil-fired and drainage is by septic tank and soakaway, which require ongoing maintenance. Broadband speeds are very slow — important for home-workers or streaming — and the property has a single family bathroom. Council tax sits at Band F, reflecting local running costs.
Overall this cottage will suit buyers seeking privacy, strong outside space and character, and those happy to undertake sympathetic updating or convert outbuildings for extra accommodation or income. It’s a rare village-edge opportunity for family life or a countryside base with sizeable garden and flexible ancillary space.
