This chain-free two-bedroom stone cottage sits in an elevated village position with panoramic countryside views, offering a compact, characterful home for someone looking to downsize or enjoy rural life. Traditional features — exposed stone walling, wooden beams and a vaulted master bedroom — give the interior strong period charm while the layout remains practical with two bathrooms and separate living and kitchen areas.
Outdoor space is small but thoughtfully arranged: a partially enclosed front seating area and a paved rear terrace both bordered by stone walling provide private spots to enjoy south- and north-facing views. The stone roof was re-set in 2000, reducing near-term major roofing concerns and supporting a durable, low-maintenance exterior.
Practical considerations: the property is freehold and has very low council tax, but broadband speeds are very slow and the plot is small, limiting garden or extension potential. The cottage sits in a quiet agricultural community with limited local amenities, so regular travel for services and shopping should be expected. Mobile signal is excellent and there is no flood risk.
At the asking price of £165,000 this sizeable yet manageable cottage (approx. 893 sq ft) will suit buyers seeking character and views over space for large gardens or fast internet. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the elevated outlook and interior proportions firsthand.
