Set on an elevated rural lane, this three-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers authentic Victorian character and wide, uninterrupted countryside views. Original features — diamond-lattice windows, beamed ceilings and cast-iron fireplaces — create a warm, characterful interior anchored by a generous lounge/diner with a multi-fuel burner.
The footprint is compact but well arranged, with a cottage kitchen, ground-floor bathroom and a separate first-floor toilet. Externally the large, mature garden and parking drive provide excellent outdoor space and storage, including a timber shed and summerhouse. Broadband speeds are reported as fast and the location is peaceful with low local crime.
Buyers should note material practicalities: the property has an EPC rating of G, main heating via LPG (bottled/propane) and likely solid brick walls with no cavity insulation. Services include a shared septic tank and a shared water meter; these carry ongoing costs and management considerations. Windows appear original single glazing, so energy and comfort improvements are probable.
This cottage will suit buyers drawn to rural character — those seeking a holiday home, downsizer or project buyer wanting period features and scope for sympathetic updating. Early viewing is advised to appreciate the views and assess potential improvements such as insulation, glazing upgrades and heating alternatives.
