Winchwell Cottage is a character semi-detached cottage set in a quiet semi-rural lane with wide views to the side and rear. The house delivers versatile family living across two reception rooms, a separate dining room, kitchen with utility, and three bright first-floor bedrooms — all anchored by period details such as high ceilings, wood panelling and open fireplaces. The wood-burning stove in the lounge gives immediate warmth and charm.
Outside the plot is a major asset: a large, well-established garden with sheltered seating areas, mature planting, an in-and-out driveway, detached garage and powered workshop. A working well with pump adds independent water for garden use and the plot offers scope to extend or re-landscape (subject to consents). Broadband speeds are fast, supporting modern home working from this peaceful hamlet setting.
Practical points are straightforward and honest. There is one completed family bathroom on the ground floor and a first-floor shower room that requires finishing to your own taste. The kitchen and some internal finishes are functional rather than contemporary, so buyers should allow budget for modernisation if desired. Council tax is above average and the immediate area is classified as having pockets of deprivation, though the location sits within a prosperous countryside setting overall.
This property will suit buyers seeking character, garden space and countryside views — families who value separate reception spaces and scope to personalise, or buyers looking for a long-term renovation project with significant outdoor amenity. Early inspection is advised to appreciate the plot and potential.
