Living spaces feature exposed beams, a brick fireplace and a separate dining room, offering a warm, traditional layout suited to family life or those seeking countryside charm.
The property sits on a large plot with front and rear gardens, plus a good-sized garage and parking. At about 1,440 sq ft the house feels roomy for its type, with a separate kitchen, utility room and downstairs WC adding everyday convenience. Broadband is reported fast and the location offers pleasant rural walks and good primary schools nearby.
Buyers should note this is a listed building and "listed status - will cause difficulties" is stated; any alterations will be constrained and require consents. The construction details indicate solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation, double glazing installed before 2002 and electric storage heating — all pointing to potential energy-efficiency and maintenance upgrades. Council tax band is above average and there is only one family bathroom.
This home will suit buyers looking for character, outdoor space and a rural lifestyle who accept the responsibilities of owning a listed, older property and budget for retrofit or sympathetic renovation work.
