Set within about two acres, this detached cottage pairs classic character with practical rural space. Exposed beams, a conservatory and three reception rooms give a flexible interior that can work as family living, home offices or a ground-floor bedroom if required. The main bedroom includes an en suite; a second shower room serves the house.
Outside are two paddocks, double stables, a large workshop and a private lake — features that suit equestrian use, smallholding or simply expansive private gardens. Ample off-street parking, gated access and a CCTV system add security. A recently replaced roof is a tangible maintenance plus.
Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating, cavity walls that are assumed uninsulated and an EPC rating of D. The house dates from the early 20th century, so there is scope for sympathetic upgrading and tightening of thermal performance. Council Tax Band D applies.
For buyers seeking rural privacy with good road and service links to nearby towns, this property offers a rare plot size and versatile buildings. It will suit families who want land and stables, hobby farmers, or buyers prepared to invest in energy improvements to maximise comfort and efficiency.
