Tancred House is a handsome early-19th‑century detached cottage beautifully renovated to provide 2,235 sq ft of versatile family living. Sympathetic extensions and careful restoration retain period character—exposed beams, sash-style windows and original proportions—while delivering contemporary comforts including a large modern-rustic kitchen with island and bi-fold doors opening to the garden.
The ground floor offers three reception rooms (two with log burners), a boot room and a handy ground-floor shower room adjacent to a room currently used as an office, allowing straightforward conversion to a bedroom if required. Upstairs are four double bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes, a family bathroom with separate shower cubicle and an additional shower room, so the layout suits busy family life and guests.
Outdoor space is a major asset: a generous, cottage‑style enclosed garden with mature planting, several seating areas, lawn and an outbuilding for storage or workshop use. Off-street parking is provided by a gated gravel driveway. The plot backs onto open fields, lending a rural outlook and countryside tranquillity.
Practical points to consider: the house sits in a small hamlet/remoter community, so services and public transport are limited; mobile signal is average (broadband speeds reported as fast). The property is freehold, newly renovated and presented move‑in ready, but as with any period home some ongoing maintenance will be necessary to preserve character features and the older fabric.
