This unlisted period cottage sits on a very large plot in the desirable village of Betley. Chain-free and full of character, the house offers four reception rooms, a conservatory and a flexible 4/5 bedroom layout that will suit a growing family seeking space and countryside views. The footprint is compact (approx. 948 sq ft) but the plot provides scope for garden living and potential further development subject to planning permission.
The property requires renovation to bring it up to modern standards and to meet conservation-area expectations. Notable practical issues include older cavity walls with assumed no insulation, oil-fired central heating and slow broadband — all factors to budget for during refurbishment. The conservatory and rear aspect overlook open fields, creating a tranquil setting but also a need to consider energy efficiency and ongoing maintenance.
Practical benefits include off-road parking, a garage for storage, double glazing fitted after 2002 and very low local crime. Local amenities and three well-rated schools are within reach, making this suitable for families who value village life and outdoor space. Investors or builders may also explore the development potential, subject to necessary permissions.
In short: Cedar Cottage will reward an incoming buyer prepared to renovate. It offers immediate family-friendly space, a large garden and quiet rural character, balanced by clear renovation and energy-efficiency work required.
