Character-filled rural home with strong refurbishment potential and garage.
- Detached 2-bed cottage on a large private garden
A charming 2-bedroom detached cottage in Steventon, offered freehold with a large private garden and garage. The house dates from the early 1900s and retains period features — arched Victorian windows and a character fireplace with a wood-burning stove — while presenting clear scope to modernise interiors and services.
The ground floor includes a cosy sitting room, kitchen with garden-room extension, and a convenience WC. Upstairs offers two bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC; the current layout is straightforward and ready for a refurbishment to create a more contemporary family living arrangement.
Practical points: the property runs on an oil-fired boiler with radiators, double glazing was fitted after 2002, and council tax is described as affordable. Broadband speeds are slow in this rural location and mobile signal is average, so purchasers should plan for connectivity limitations. There is no flooding risk and the plot sits in a very affluent, low-deprivation area with good nearby schooling and road and rail links to Basingstoke and London.
This is a genuine renovation opportunity for buyers seeking a period cottage in a peaceful village setting. The long rear garden, terrace and garage offer scope for outdoor living and added value; buyers should budget for updating heating, kitchens, bathrooms and general modernisation works.
