This Grade II listed thatched cottage has been fully refurbished to offer contemporary living within a historic shell. The house presents a large living room with exposed beams and stone flooring, a modern U-shaped kitchen with dining area, and three bedrooms across two floors — a comfortable layout for a small family or seaside second home.
Externally the property benefits from driveway parking, a good-sized, low‑maintenance rear garden and a brick outbuilding. The location is a strong selling point: the beach and village shops are within walking distance, and local primary schools rated Good are nearby.
Important practical points: the home is sold by Modern Auction (subject to an undisclosed reserve) and buyers must pay a non‑refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600). As a Grade II listed building, alterations will be restricted and listed‑building consent may be required for many works. The solid-brick, pre‑1900 construction likely has limited cavity insulation and the rooms have low ceilings, which may affect heating efficiency and layout changes.
Utilities and connectivity are basic: mains gas heating with boiler and radiators is installed, but broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average. The property is offered freehold with no onward chain, recently renovated internally, and will suit buyers who value character and location but accept the constraints of listed status and auction purchase terms.
