Large private plot with paddock and strong extension potential.
Detached cottage with period features and exposed timbers
Priory Cottage is a detached, characterful village home set on an unusually large plot of approximately 1.29 acres, with a paddock suitable for a pony or smallholding. The house retains period features — open fire in the sitting room, a log burner in the dining room and exposed timbers in the garden room — giving immediate charm and comfortable, adaptable living space across two floors.
Practical strengths include substantial off-road parking, an attached garage and carport, LPG boiler central heating, and double glazing installed after 2002. The large garden and paddock provide privacy and scope: there is clear potential for additional extensions or outbuildings (subject to planning), and the site will particularly appeal to buyers wanting space for horses, gardening or a flexible family layout.
The property is lived-in and will benefit from modernisation. The kitchen shows 1980s fittings and some outbuildings/workshop require renovation. The walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction and heating runs on LPG and oil—buyers should factor in running costs and potential insulation or heating upgrades. Council Tax is Band E and prospective purchasers are advised to commission full surveys and services checks before purchase.
Overall this is a rare village holding combining older cottage character with sizeable land and practical parking. It suits families seeking countryside lifestyle near local schools and amenities, or investors looking for refurbishment and uplift potential subject to planning and works.
