Rose Cottage is a detached, stone-built period home tucked into Church Street, Blackford, offering authentic 19th-century character alongside practical modern upgrades. The cottage’s generous dual-aspect sitting room with a wood-burning stove and the roomy kitchen-diner create a warm, sociable ground floor ideal for family life and entertaining.
Dating from 1835, the property retains deep stone window sills, exposed masonry and a traditional layout across two floors. Two well-proportioned double bedrooms sit either side of the landing, and a utility room adds everyday convenience. Double glazing has been fitted (post-2002) and an oil-fired boiler provides radiator heating throughout.
Outside, the south-facing garden and paved sun terrace capture the afternoon sun and feel private despite the central village location. There is a single off-street parking space and a small walled front/side garden with a garden shed — attractive outdoor space, but a modest plot overall.
Practical considerations: the cottage’s stone walls are historic and assumed to have no built-in insulation, and the property is heated by oil (not a community supply), which may influence running costs and future upgrades. This is a characterful home with clear potential for sympathetic improvement rather than a fully modernised package. No flooding risk is recorded, and local schools and village amenities are within easy reach.
