A picture-perfect detached stone cottage tucked away in Drayton’s conservation area, recently and sensitively renovated to combine period charm with modern comforts. The house dates from the 1700s and retains original features — inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and elm/oak floorboards — alongside practical upgrades such as new wiring, part-thatched roof re-cover and underfloor heating on the ground floor.
The layout is flexible with two entrances, two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room and three bedrooms on the first floor. The principal bedroom benefits from a vaulted ceiling and Juliette balcony; the family bathroom offers both bath and separate shower. A detached garage with a first-floor studio/home office adds useful workspace or potential income use.
Set on a generous level plot of cottage gardens with mature hedging, greenhouse and secluded patio, the property is private and low-maintenance — well suited to downsizers or buyers seeking a lock-up-and-leave village retreat. Superfast broadband is available and the village has good local facilities and primary schools nearby.
Important practical points: heating is oil-fired (external boiler) and walls are traditional stone with assumed no insulation, which can mean higher running costs and potential upgrade work. Mobile signal and broadband speeds are average for a rural location. The property sits in a conservation area (not listed) and is offered freehold with no onward chain.
