Generous garden and gated parking near village amenities and good schools.
Double-fronted period stone cottage with authentic character features
Blossom Cottage is a double-fronted period stone home set on a generous, level plot of about 0.14 acres. The house retains authentic character — exposed beams, window seats and natural stone inglenooks — and benefits from modern conveniences including mains gas central heating and recently replaced period-style uPVC double glazing. A private gated driveway provides parking for five cars or more and leads to a detached single garage.
The flexible layout (circa 1,557 sq ft) suits a growing family: sitting and dining rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, office/ground-floor bedroom and four first-floor bedrooms. The southerly aspect at the front brings good natural light and the rear garden is level, enclosed and planted with mature trees and fruit. There’s clear scope to reconfigure or extend the house — or add a double garage — subject to planning consent.
Important practical points are straightforward: the property is freehold and offered chain-free, with excellent village amenities within a short walk and good local schools. Buyers should note the stone walls are assumed uninsulated as originally built, typical of pre-1900 construction, so there may be thermal upgrade works or ongoing maintenance to consider. Any extension or new garage would require the necessary planning permissions.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking character, space and a large, private garden in a lively village setting — ideal for children, pets and outdoor family life — and for purchasers willing to invest thoughtfully in energy improvements or modest modernisation to unlock further value.
