Set on the edge of Colesbrook with open countryside views, Mill Cottage is a three-bedroom detached family home that combines traditional character with practical family space. The house offers two reception rooms and a modern kitchen, arranged over multiple levels to provide comfortable day-to-day living and room for entertaining. A large enclosed rear garden and a double garage with driveway parking suit children, pets and weekend projects.
Practical considerations are clear and honest: the property is oil‑heated via a boiler and currently carries an EPC Band D. The sandstone/limestone walls are understood to have no cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for energy upgrades if desired. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow, which may affect home working, and the property lies in a medium flood‑risk zone — specialist checks are advised.
Mill Cottage sits in a conservation area and occupies a substantial plot in a semi‑rural hamlet setting, offering privacy and scenic outlooks but possible restrictions on external alterations. The house is offered freehold and will suit families seeking a characterful home with scope to improve energy performance and connectivity, or buyers wanting a peaceful countryside base with immediate usable space.
