A charming Grade II listed Georgian terraced cottage in sought-after South Street, offering deceptively spacious accommodation across 1,144 sqft. The house blends period character—sash windows, flagstone and wide floorboards, panelling and fireplaces—with practical modern comforts such as gas central heating, a wood burner and an en-suite bathroom. The layout suits a family looking for separate living areas and three bedrooms.
Outside, the property benefits from a very private walled garden with mature planting, raised beds and a useful brick summerhouse/studio — a rare town-centre outdoor space that frames views to the church and surrounding countryside. There is off-street parking nearby and a residents’ parking scheme for longer-stay vehicles. A water butt adds a small environmental bonus for garden maintenance.
Important practical points: the house is Grade II listed and includes a small flying freehold over the neighbouring property, which may restrict alterations and add to maintenance obligations. The building is of solid stone/brick construction with limited wall insulation (typical of its age) and the EPC rating is D. The plot is very small and the town-centre setting means external space is compact.
This cottage will suit buyers who prioritise period character, a prime South Street location and a private town garden. It will be less suitable for those seeking a low-maintenance, fully modernised home or substantial external grounds; listed status and solid-wall construction mean any major works require specialist consideration.
