Lapwing Cottage is a detached two-bedroom barn conversion set in a rural village setting, offered freehold with change-of-use from holiday let to residential. The layout provides a generous kitchen-diner, lounge, first-floor bedrooms with eaves storage and a cloakroom, plus an enclosed rear garden and two allocated courtyard parking spaces. The property has character features such as exposed brickwork and beams alongside practical upgrades including double glazing (post-2002) and an oil-fired boiler and radiators.
This cottage has been run successfully as a holiday let, which will appeal to buyers wanting an income history or those seeking a ready-made home in the countryside. The large overall footprint and traditional construction also present scope for reconfiguration or improvement, subject to planning and permissions for older buildings.
There are some important considerations: heating is oil-fired (not on a community supply), broadband speeds are very slow, and the building has solid brick walls with assumed lack of insulation — further retrofit work may be needed to improve energy efficiency. The upstairs bedrooms have partially restricted head height and the property currently has a single bathroom, which may limit appeal to some buyers.
Practical matters to note: the property is understood not to be registered at the Land Registry and a management company will be established once the wider group of properties complete. Prospective purchasers should commission their own surveys and check services, permissions and registration as part of their due diligence.
