Spacious family home with extensive private garden and parking.
Detached period cottage with original beams and fireplaces
A charming period cottage in the heart of Latchingdon, this detached four-bedroom home combines original character with generous outdoor space. Exposed beams, studwork and working fireplaces create a warm, authentic interior while three reception rooms and a large kitchen/breakfast room give flexible family living on the ground floor. The attic room provides extra study or hobby space, accessed by space‑saving stairs.
The rear garden extends to approximately 100 feet and is a major selling point: largely lawned, well screened by mature hedging and finished with a timber summer house with power and decking. Off-street parking and a prefabricated garage/outbuilding add practical storage and vehicle space, plus an electric vehicle charging point for modern convenience.
Practical considerations: the property has an Energy Performance Rating D and sits in Council Tax Band E. Planning permission for a two-storey extension was granted in 2020 (ref 20/01304/HOUSE) but that consent will need to be re-applied for before works proceed. The garden shows some dry patches and the house will suit buyers happy to personalise and update certain elements rather than those seeking a fully modernised turnkey home.
Overall this is a comfortable village family home with strong potential to extend or modernise (subject to consents). It will particularly appeal to purchasers prioritising character, outdoor amenity and village living with easy access to nearby estuaries and local schools.
