A rare Grade II listed cottage on Mill Street, offered chain free and occupying a generous 1,375 sq ft. The house retains strong historic character: exposed timber beams throughout and a dramatic inglenook fireplace create immediate charm and atmosphere. The property fronts a recreational field and sits within easy walking distance of St Osyth village shops, cafés and a picturesque lake.
Practical benefits include a decent mature rear garden and off-street parking accessed via a shared single track to the rear — an uncommon convenience for a home of this age and location. Local amenities, good primary and secondary schools, low crime levels and nearby countryside walks make this especially appealing for downsizers or buyers seeking village living with character.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listing will impose restrictions and likely add cost and lead time to alterations or repairs. Broadband speeds are slow and the access track is narrow; parking is available but reached via an adjacent lane. The wider area shows indicators of deprivation, so buyers should weigh local investment prospects accordingly.
Overall, this is a substantial period home for someone who values historic fabric and village life and is prepared for listed-building responsibilities. It offers immediate character, parking and garden space — with scope for sensitive refurbishment to enhance comfort and value.
