Set on a substantial 1.13-acre plot on the outskirts of Beck Row, this detached three-bedroom cottage offers generous living space and genuine development potential (subject to planning). Two reception rooms and a conservatory provide flexible family living, while dual-aspect windows and field views give a calm, rural feel. A substantial 500 sqft brick outbuilding and vehicular access to the rear meadow broaden the site’s possibilities for conversion or ancillary use, subject to planning approval.
The house is best suited to buyers seeking a character property to modernise. The interior retains period/1970s fittings — notably a dated kitchen and a single family bathroom — so the home will reward a programme of refurbishment. Heating is by oil boiler to radiators; windows are timber with secondary glazing (unknown upgrade dates). Broadband speeds are slow locally, which may affect home-working unless improved.
Practical advantages include a long driveway, garage and multiple off-street parking spaces, plus enclosed cottage gardens and meadowland ideal for gardening, small-scale hobby farming or future development (no permissions currently granted). Council Tax is Band E and the property is freehold. Buyers should note there are no current planning consents for development of the outbuilding or meadow — any change of use will require formal applications.
This property suits families wanting space and rural privacy, buyers looking for a renovation project with plot potential, or investors exploring development opportunities (planning dependent). It offers a rare combination of cottage character, sizeable grounds and clear scope for value-added improvement.
