This Grade II listed, 17th‑century thatched family home blends landmark character with generous, flexible living. Five large double bedrooms, three or four reception rooms and period features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and original cast‑iron ovens — give the house true historic charm while underfloor heating and integrated appliances provide everyday comfort.
The layout suits a growing family: a dual‑aspect sitting room with wood‑burner and underfloor heating, dining room with inglenook, a kitchen/breakfast room with island, and a large rear reception currently used as a library. The principal bedroom benefits from vaulted A‑frames and access to the triple‑aspect library. Outside, a south‑westerly private garden, two brick outbuildings and a separate workshop create usable family space; courtyard off‑street parking and a working well add practical convenience.
Important practical notes: the property’s listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate works or conversions. Annexe conversion would need a planning application. Council tax is described as expensive. The house offers strong scope for sympathetic updating where desired, but major changes will require listed‑building consent. Suited to buyers who value historic character and space in a prosperous village setting with good schools and fast broadband.
