Ye Olde Forge is a Grade II listed detached cottage that combines retained period character with substantial modern extension work. The living space is generous (approximately 1,950 sq ft) and now includes four reception rooms, a vaulted kitchen/dining room with central island, and a partly converted cellar utility — good for flexible family living, home working or entertaining. The property sits in very large private gardens of about 0.66 acres with established planting, fruit trees, patio and a gravelled BBQ/seating area.
Practical benefits include recent renovation work and planning permission (foundations in place) for a detached double garage with a room above, offering clear scope to add value and create additional accommodation or home office space. The house has three bedrooms and one family bathroom; the current layout supports multigenerational use with ground-floor reception and study spaces.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listed status may restrict changes and cause difficulties when seeking further alterations. There is a medium flood risk for the area and cellar head height is restricted, limiting some uses. Council tax is above average and there is only a single family bathroom for three bedrooms. Overall, the house suits buyers who value historic character, generous outdoor space and scope for sympathetic improvement rather than those seeking a low-maintenance, fully modern property.
