This Grade II listed cottage offers a rare mix of period character and flexible family space in a quiet village setting. Exposed beams, stone walls and a wood-burner create authentic charm, while generous reception rooms and multiple adaptable bedrooms give scope for modern living and entertaining.
The large, enclosed rear plot backs onto fields, providing privacy, sunny lawns, a vegetable area and a powered timber workshop. Off-street parking for two to three cars is accessed via a private drive and double timber gates, a practical benefit for village living.
The house has been sympathetically upgraded in places but still offers clear potential to personalise and increase value. Some rooms retain original fittings and bespoke solutions may be needed because of the listed status, which will affect permitted alterations and maintenance approaches.
Practical considerations: energy performance is Exempt due to listing, the property sits in a medium flood-risk zone, and the age/listed status can complicate structural, servicing or extension work. Buyers seeking character and scope to renovate will find this a rewarding project; those wanting a fully modern, low-maintenance home should factor likely listed-consent requirements and retrofit constraints into their plans.
