Characterful four‑bed cottage with parking and garden, ideal for village life and commuters.
Four bedrooms with period features and exposed beams
Spacious kitchen/diner with bifold doors to low-maintenance garden
Lounge with open fireplace and log burner
Utility room plus shower room and separate additional shower/WC
Ample off-street parking for four cars and garden shed
Small overall living area (c.694 sq ft) — limited internal space
Solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation — thermal upgrades needed
Double glazing present; install date unknown
Set in the peaceful village of Bedmond, Magnolia Cottage is a detached four-bedroom character home that balances period charm with usable modern living. Exposed beams, an open fireplace with a log burner and traditional features create a cosy, cottage atmosphere while a contemporary kitchen/diner with bifold doors opens to a low-maintenance garden for easy indoor–outdoor flow.
The layout is unconventional in a good way: two staircases lead to four well-proportioned bedrooms with a family bathroom plus an additional shower room and a separate utility with shower/WC—useful for muddy boots after countryside walks. Practical extras include double glazing (install date unknown), mains gas boiler and radiators, a standalone shed and parking for up to four cars on the gravel driveway.
Important practical points: the house is relatively small at about 694 sq ft and was constructed in the 1930s–1940s with solid brick walls that likely lack modern cavity insulation. These factors, plus the unknown age of the glazing, mean there is potential to improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs but also likely upgrade works if you prioritise thermal performance. No flood risk is recorded.
This property will suit buyers looking for character and a village lifestyle—families who value good local schools and commuters who need quick road and rail links. It’s also suitable for buyers prepared to invest modestly to modernise insulation and heating efficiency while retaining original charm.
