Mount Pleasant is a striking Grade II listed 17th‑century cottage set in about 0.73 acres of beautifully stocked gardens. Period features — exposed timbers, stone walling and original fireplaces — sit alongside a contemporary open-plan dining kitchen with underfloor heating and quality appliances, giving immediate comfortable family living.
The grounds are a standout: formal lawns, scented rose borders, a wildflower meadow, pond, high-quality cedar greenhouse and shed, plus a detached double garage and brick studio. The studio offers flexible space for a guest suite, home office or gym, subject to the necessary consents.
Practical details include oil-fired central heating, a private Diamond sewage treatment plant and fast broadband. The house is approached via automated gates and a gravel driveway with generous parking. Good road links to the A38/A50/A52 provide reasonable access to nearby towns and rail links.
Important considerations: the Grade II listing will restrict modifications and may complicate extensions or some alterations. Heating is oil-based and the property uses a private sewage system, which have ongoing running and maintenance costs.
