Flintlock Cottage is a characterful detached period home in Old Bolingbroke’s conservation area. The cottage offers well-proportioned living across two floors, with a lounge and kitchen both featuring wood burners, bespoke Murdoch Troon cabinetry, and exposed beams that preserve the property’s rustic charm. A new oil-fired boiler and replacement radiators provide an important recent upgrade to heating.
The ground floor includes a side utility, shower room and rear hallway, while the first floor has two double bedrooms and a bathroom. The cottage sits on a small plot with off-road parking to the side and an enclosed, low-maintenance rear garden with a shed. Ceiling heights are generally low and rooms are cosy, matching the traditional proportions of an older cottage.
Practical considerations: the EPC is rated E and broadband speeds are slow, reflecting the rural location. The property is Freehold and council tax is very inexpensive. The cottage offers clear potential for cosmetic updating in the kitchen, bathrooms or garden for buyers wanting to add value or tailor the home to modern tastes.
This home will suit buyers seeking rural character and a village lifestyle — downsizers, couples or those wanting a second home in the countryside. It’s not a modern, high-ceiling new build: expect period proportions, some dated fittings and scope for improvement, balanced by authentic features and recent heating upgrades.
