Set in the secluded village of Coates, this Grade II listed thatched cottage blends 18th‑century character with recent upgrades. Built in the 1750s, the house retains low ceilings and period features across a compact, well‑proportioned layout. A generous reception arrangement — kitchen/breakfast room, dining room and lounge — makes daily life comfortable while the mezzanine provides a handy home‑working nook.
The attractive mature garden and gravel driveway for two cars sit on a large plot, offering privacy and outdoor space without the scale and upkeep of a country estate. The heating system and thatch have been recently updated, reducing immediate maintenance costs and improving comfort in colder months. Broadband speeds are reported as fast, supporting remote working and streaming.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status: repairs or alterations will need listed‑building consent and may add time and cost to future changes. Thatch, while recently renewed, requires specialist maintenance and insurance considerations. The cottage has a single full bathroom with extra WCs, so larger households should check layout suitability.
This home will suit downsizers or buyers seeking a period property with character, peaceful rural setting and ready‑to‑live‑in updates. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the atmosphere and practical layout that photos can’t fully convey.
