Step into a rare late 17th-century thatched cottage set in the heart of Churchtown Village, with direct views of St Cuthbert’s Church spire. This Grade II listed home retains strong period character: beamed ceilings, stained glass leaded windows, an open coal fire and traditional room proportions. The layout includes a cosy lounge, separate dining room, study, character kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and separate WC.
The cottage stands on a large, secluded plot with mature lawns, established shrubs, an ornamental pond, greenhouse and a private rear courtyard. Its village-centre position places shops, cafés and good primary and secondary schools within easy reach, while mobile signal is excellent and broadband availability is average.
Important practical points: the Grade II listing and inclusion in the Churchtown Conservation Area will restrict alterations and can complicate repair work. Walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation and the property has older double glazing (pre-2002). Low ceilings and traditionally small room sizes reflect the cottage’s age and will limit some modernisation options.
This is a one-off opportunity for a buyer seeking a storybook home with genuine period appeal and a large, established garden. It will suit purchasers prepared for listed-building ownership and the ongoing maintenance and sympathetic upgrading that accompanies historic thatch and solid-wall construction.
