A rare village cottage set within a tranquil 3.04-acre plot of formal gardens, parkland, pond and woodland. The house, believed to date from around 1750, offers a mix of period charm and practical family living spaces across multiple floors: reception rooms, kitchen/diner, utility, study/ground-floor bedroom and three first-floor bedrooms. Mature planting, lawns and pathways create many private seating areas and sheltered corners for family life and entertaining outdoors.
Practical features include oil-fired central heating and UPVC double glazing, and a substantial detached brick garage with an attached garden room and additional outbuildings. There is clear scope to extend the house and potentially convert the garage/garden room into an annex, subject to all necessary planning permissions and building consents.
Buyers should note the property has solid brick walls with no known insulation improvements (assumed) and an EPC rating of D; upgrading insulation and heating could be required to improve energy performance and running costs. Also expect routine maintenance on a large, mature garden and older building fabric. Overall this is a spacious family home with significant outdoor amenity and development potential for those willing to invest in improvements.
