Four double bedrooms with main en suite
Set in a very large plot of approximately half an acre, this extended cottage blends historic charm with family-sized living. Original features such as exposed timbers and ledge-and-brace doors sit alongside later additions including a modern conservatory, three reception rooms and a generous dining kitchen — providing flexible space for family life and entertaining.
The house dates back to around 1705 and has been cared for by long-term owners; it benefits from majority double glazing and an oil-fired boiler (new installation noted November 2024). A gated driveway leads to an impressive double garage and ample parking. Mature, enclosed gardens include a greenhouse, vegetable plot, log store and paved patio, offering privacy and wide outdoor scope for children, pets or horticulture.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired (not a community supply) and glazing was installed before 2002 in many places. Council tax sits above average. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal average; the location is a peaceful hamlet/isolated dwelling within established farming country, attractive for families seeking quiet rural living but less convenient for frequent urban commuting.
This property will suit buyers seeking character, space and strong outdoor amenities on a substantial plot, and those prepared to manage or update some traditional services. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, garden and versatile layout.
