Tucked in the conservation village of Everingham, this detached two-bedroom cottage blends period charm with well-executed modern upgrades. The house centres on a bright dining kitchen with a central island and roof lantern, plus a rear sitting room with bi-fold doors that open onto a generous west-facing garden. A dedicated garden room/office adds flexible space for working from home or occasional guests.
The garden is a major draw: approximately 0.16 acre of thoughtfully landscaped lawns, mature borders, a paved seating terrace and an enclosed vegetable plot with shed. Practical conveniences include a gravel driveway for off-street parking, vehicular access to the rear via a right of way and a new oil tank. The lounge’s eco log burner and underfloor heating in key rooms add comfort and atmosphere.
Buyers should note some material facts: heating is oil-fired (not a community supply) and the walls are cavity as built with no added insulation assumed, so running costs and future energy improvements should be considered. Broadband speeds are slow and the telephone connection is subject to renewal, which may affect home-working needs despite the excellent garden office.
Overall this is a well-presented, characterful village home ideal for buyers who value outdoor space, a stylish kitchen-living heart and flexible home-working accommodation. It will particularly suit families or downsizers seeking a peaceful rural setting with good road links and very low local crime levels.
