A charming Grade II listed two-bedroom cottage in the highly sought village of Assington, offered with no onward chain. The house retains original character—exposed beams, undulating plaster and an open brick fireplace—while a rear extension provides a bright kitchen/diner with vaulted ceiling and garden-facing double doors. The large rear plot (circa 100ft sts) backs onto open fields and includes a detached timber shed with double front doors.
Practical benefits include a private gravel driveway with tandem parking for two vehicles, convenient village amenities within walking distance (shop, tea room, pub) and easy commuting links to Sudbury and Colchester. The property is compact inside (c.531 sq ft) and arranged efficiently over two floors, suitable for a small household or first-time buyer wanting a countryside base with outdoor space.
Important points to note: the house is Grade II listed, which will affect any alterations and may complicate works or permissions. The rear garden measurement is approximate and a right of way is believed to exist behind the house for a neighbouring property; prospective buyers should confirm this on the title deeds. The footprint and room sizes are modest, so consider storage and layout needs before viewing.
This cottage offers a rare combination of period charm, a long private garden and off-street parking in a quiet, affluent village setting. It will suit buyers who value character and outdoor space and are comfortable with listed-building constraints and smaller internal living areas.
