Set on Silver Street overlooking the village green, this Grade II-listed Georgian house offers generous family accommodation across 2,204 sq ft. Period details — sash windows, high ceilings, exposed stone and feature fireplaces — combine with practical rooms including a sociable kitchen/breakfast room with Aga, boot room and utility for everyday family life.
The walled, south-facing garden and private balcony extend living outdoors, with cobbled paths, seating areas and a water feature creating a sheltered space for children and entertaining. Four bedrooms plus a landing study and a snug/family room allow flexible arrangements and the potential to reconfigure upstairs into a principal suite with dressing and en-suite facilities.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status, which will restrict alterations and may complicate repairs or upgrades. Walls are likely uninsulated and glazing is secondary; the building will benefit from targeted energy-efficiency work. There is no mobile signal and broadband speeds are average — typical of a rural village location.
Practical considerations: council tax is above average and the site has a medium flooding risk. For a family seeking village life near excellent schools and countryside walking, this characterful house offers a distinctive, spacious base with scope to personalise while respecting its historic fabric.
