This attractive three-bedroom detached thatched cottage blends period character with recent modernisation, set on a large plot with open field views. Recent works include a new thatch ridge (2024), new electrics (2023), new log burner (2023) and a new sewage treatment plant (2022), making the property largely move-in ready while retaining original features such as exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace.
Accommodation is flexible for family life: three first-floor bedrooms, a sizable master with fitted wardrobes and dual aspect views, and three reception rooms on the ground floor plus a study/ground-floor bedroom. The kitchen is fully fitted with quartz worktops, integrated appliances and a walk-in pantry/utility. The single family bathroom is modern and tiled.
Practical benefits include ample off-road parking, a detached garage and a huge rear garden with countryside views — excellent for family outdoor life or further landscaping and extension potential (subject to permissions). The location suits rural workers and families who value space, tranquillity and excellent mobile signal in a hamlet setting.
Notable constraints are factual: heating is by electric room heaters (no central gas), broadband speeds are very slow, the EPC is E and council tax is described as expensive. The property’s large plot and thatch roof mean ongoing maintenance and higher insurance costs compared with standard roofs. Buyers should budget for long-term upkeep associated with period thatched buildings.
