Turnkey restored cottage on c.1 acre with sweeping countryside views.
Grade II listed 17th-century cottage with original timber beams
A rare, fully renovated Grade II 17th-century cottage set within about 1 acre of landscaped gardens and uninterrupted countryside views. The house blends exposed timber beams, inglenook fireplaces and a newly fitted vaulted kitchen with modern appliances — presented in turnkey condition after sympathetic extensions and refurbishment over the last seven years.
The ground floor offers flexible living: dining room open to the vaulted kitchen, lounge with inglenook fireplace, snug, large utility and a study that can serve as bedroom four. Upstairs are three double bedrooms (one en-suite) with exposed beams and a generous family bathroom. Off-street parking is convenient with a double carport and two storage rooms.
Practical considerations: the property is Grade II listed, so alterations are restricted and require consent. The EPC is rated F and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so heating relies on an LPG boiler and running costs may be higher than modern equivalents. Council tax is described as quite expensive.
For families seeking character, space and privacy in an affluent rural setting, Meadow House offers a rare combination of original features, modern comforts and large grounds. Buyers should factor in listing constraints and potential energy-efficiency improvements when considering long-term running costs.
