Character home with separate annexe and large mature gardens near coast and countryside.
Grade II listed thatched cottage; newly re-thatched in 2024
A beautifully presented Grade II listed thatched cottage set on a large plot in Burton, combining historic character with flexible modern living. The main house offers a living room with fireplace and log burner, a side kitchen opening to a vaulted dining area overlooking the garden, and four bedrooms including an ensuite to the principal bedroom. A newly thatched roof (2024) is a recent major upkeep benefit.
The property includes a detached one-bedroom annex with its own entrance and courtyard — ideal for extended family, guest accommodation, or a potential holiday-let income stream. Extensive gardens feature lawn, patio, raised borders, vegetable plot and greenhouse, and there is generous off-street parking to the front.
Buyers should note material considerations: the house is Grade II listed, which restricts alterations and can complicate maintenance or upgrades. The property has cavity walls with no added insulation (assumed), and there is a medium flood risk for the area. Council Tax is band E and the building dates suggest mid-20th century construction details despite the traditional appearance.
Situated on the edge of Christchurch, Burton offers village amenities with easy access to the coast, New Forest and nearby towns. This home will suit families or buyers seeking a character property with separate annexe space, provided they are comfortable with listed-building constraints and the ongoing responsibilities that come with thatched roofing and older construction.
