Nestled in the sought-after village of Baltonsborough, Rose Cottage is a charming three-bedroom stone semi-detached home that blends period character with practical updates. The house has two reception rooms, a modern kitchen fitted in 2018, and an inset wood-burning stove installed in 2018 — features that create immediate warmth and usable living space while retaining traditional appeal.
Practical improvements include a newly installed Worcester oil boiler (2025) and double glazing; however the property does require further modernisation throughout and an EPC rating of E reflects its current energy performance. The small walled courtyard and gated single parking space provide low-maintenance outdoor space and secure parking, while an outbuilding offers storage but needs repair.
This cottage will suit buyers looking for village living and character who are prepared to carry out cosmetic and some fabric improvements to personalise the home and improve efficiency. Its no-onward-chain status, central village location near local amenities, and good links to nearby towns offer both convenience and future potential.
