Set in the sought-after village of Shorne, this extended three-bedroom semi-detached cottage blends period character with contemporary living. The original front lounge retains an open fireplace and wood-burning stove, while double doors lead into a bright double-aspect living and dining space that opens onto a west-facing patio and pergola — ideal for afternoon sun and family entertaining.
The kitchen is fitted with solid wood worktops and newly installed integrated appliances. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite shower room; two further bedrooms share a family bathroom with a roll-top bath. Outside, mature hedging frames the front garden and the rear plot includes a patio, lawn, summer house, brick log store and potting shed.
Practical considerations: the house is freehold and sits within an affluent village with good primary and independent schooling nearby. Heating is provided by room heaters and a wood-chip system, and the property’s solid brick walls (original build pre-1900) are likely uninsulated, so buyers should budget for energy-efficiency upgrades. Broadband speeds are slow and parking is on a shared driveway, although there is potential to create an additional driveway subject to planning permission.
Overall, the house will suit families seeking village charm with ready-to-enjoy living spaces and scope to improve energy performance and parking. No flood risk and moderate council tax add to practical appeal, but prospective buyers should inspect heating systems and insulation before committing.
