Set in the picturesque village of Flaxton, Rose Cottage blends 19th-century character with a thoughtful architect-designed extension. The house offers generous family living across 1,748 sq ft, including a long, flagstoned entrance, a 24ft living room with exposed beams and wood-burning stove, and a spacious dining kitchen with bi-fold doors onto a walled garden. The integral garage and double-width gravel driveway provide practical parking and storage.
The first-floor principal bedroom is a bright, dual-aspect room with vaulted ceiling and garden views; three further double bedrooms and a well-proportioned bathroom meet family needs. The dining kitchen’s bespoke oak units, granite surfaces and underfloor heating (oil-fired) create a comfortable, sociable hub for daily life and entertaining.
Buyers should note a few material details: the property uses oil-fired heating, the external walls are original solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, the sash double glazing dates from the 1990s, and the EPC is rated D. There are no current planning permissions in place. Broadband in the area is described as slow and may not meet heavy user expectations.
Overall this detached cottage will suit families seeking a characterful village home with sizeable rooms, garden and garage, and who are comfortable with older-wall construction, oil heating and redressing energy-performance or connectivity where desired.
