Set within an ageing rural neighbourhood and backing onto open paddocks, Kenningdale Cottage is a three-bedroom thatched home offered chain free on a substantial, secluded plot. The house combines traditional charm — exposed beams, a log-burning fireplace and a thatched roof — with generous living spaces including a vaulted kitchen/breakfast room, garden room and a bright sitting room with countryside views. Two first-floor bedrooms both have en-suite shower rooms; a ground-floor bedroom with shower/utility adds flexibility for guests or multi-generational living.
Practical strengths include two gated driveways, a detached double garage/workshop with power and lighting, plentiful off-street parking and extensive level lawns with mature hedging and a pergola seating area. The property was rebuilt in 2001, yet retains period-style features and comfortable room proportions across approximately 1,575 sq ft.
Buyers should note ongoing ownership costs and maintenance specific to this type of home: the roof is thatched (periodic specialist maintenance and potentially higher insurance costs), the main heating runs from an oil-fired boiler (tank and fuel costs; not a community supply), and the original solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated. Broadband and mobile signal are average in this hamlet setting. Council tax banding is not provided.
