Charming village cottage with annex, countryside views and scope to improve energy performance.
Three-bedroom period cottage with exposed beams and character features
This charming three-bedroom period cottage sits in the heart of Breedon-on-the-Hill and combines character details with practical living space. Two reception rooms show original exposed beams and brickwork; the sitting room benefits from a log burner and views over the village green. A country-styled kitchen leads to a tiered, low-maintenance garden and a timber summerhouse with distant countryside outlooks.
A self-contained annex with vaulted ceiling and en suite shower room provides flexible space for a dependent relative, teenager, home office or potential holiday let (subject to necessary consents). The property is sold freehold and chain free, making it straightforward to move into or adapt.
Buyers should note the cottage’s period construction brings trade-offs: the EPC rating is F, main heating is oil-fired boiler and radiators, and the solid brick walls are assumed to lack insulation — improvement works to heating and insulation will likely be needed. The plot is small and parking is via a garage rather than extensive drive space. Crime levels in the area are above average for the region.
Overall this is a characterful village home suited to families or those wanting flexible annex accommodation who are willing to carry out energy and comfort improvements. With good local schools, village amenities and rural views, the property offers a cosy, authentic cottage lifestyle with clear scope to improve efficiency and value.
