A handsome four-bedroom cottage set in private, rural grounds on the edge of Anslow. The house dates from the 1800s and retains strong period character — exposed beams, quarry tiles, wood-burning stoves and solid wood finishes — while offering modern comforts such as a mains-gas boiler and double glazing. The layout includes three reception rooms, a country kitchen with breakfast area, study, utility, and two modern bathrooms.
The property sits on a large corner plot with extensive block-paved parking, mature southerly gardens and a timber summer house with power and lighting — useful as a home studio or office. Its quiet hamlet location and views across farmland will suit buyers seeking space, privacy and immediate countryside access. The sale is offered chain-free, which helps a straightforward move.
Practical points to note: the home is constructed with solid brick walls (no known cavity insulation) and the glazing install date is not provided, so buyers seeking top energy efficiency should budget for potential insulation or glazing upgrades. Services include mains gas and a septic tank for drainage. Broadband speeds are reported slow and mobile signal average, which may affect remote working unless improved locally. Council Tax sits in an above-average band. An internal inspection and survey are recommended to confirm condition and any necessary works.
Overall this is a well-presented rural family home with authentic period charm, a versatile outbuilding, and strong garden space. It will suit families or buyers wanting a character cottage with scope to improve energy performance and adapt spaces for modern living.
