This detached stone cottage in the heart of Mere blends 18th‑century character with surprisingly generous space. The large sitting room, exposed beam and deep window sills create a warm, characterful living area, while the kitchen/dining room is bright and laid out for everyday family life.
Upstairs offers an exceptionally large double bedroom, a well‑proportioned single bedroom and a modern bathroom — all with views towards the downs. The property is chain free, ready for immediate occupation and lends itself to updating and personalisation to maximise its charms and potential.
Externally there is a private courtyard garden and an allocated off‑street parking space (annual upkeep charge £150). Two attached outbuildings present real development potential subject to the necessary planning permissions — ideal for a home office, workshop or additional storage.
Important practical points: the cottage has an Energy Performance Rating of E and relies on individually controlled electric heaters. Broadband speeds are average and the plot is small. These factors should be weighed against the house’s central location, low running council tax band and appealing historic character.
