Set within an impressive 5.53-acre plot, this five-bedroom stone cottage combines period charm with roomy modern living. Two substantial reception rooms, a large dining kitchen with granite worktops and high-end appliances, plus utility room make daily family life easy. The site includes an equipped barn, stable block and a partially constructed barn frame, offering genuine scope for equestrian use, agricultural hobbies or conversion subject to consents.
The home is ready to move into with contemporary bathroom suites, an en suite and integrated fittings, while exposed beams, wood-burning stoves and oak doors preserve character. Formal gardens and patio areas with an outdoor oven, off-street parking and far-reaching rural views add to lifestyle appeal. Council Tax Band C and plentiful parking suit growing households.
Buyers should note practical limitations: broadband speeds are very slow and the original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed to lack insulation. The part-built barn requires completion by the purchaser and any conversion of the main barn would need planning and building-regulation approval. There is also a neighbour’s right of way across the front of the property to their outbuilding.
This property will suit families seeking space and rural lifestyle close to local schools and transport links, or buyers wanting a conversion/project with significant land. It balances move-in-ready comforts with longer-term potential for further enhancement, subject to necessary consents and some sensible investment in services and insulation.
