A traditional detached three-bedroom cottage set in about 0.347 acres, Lambrook Cottage offers exceptional countryside outlooks and substantial scope for remodelling. The plot, generous parking/turning area and private drainage recently upgraded to 2020 regulations make this a strong site for a sympathetic renovation or extension, subject to planning. The property is not listed, increasing flexibility for improvement.
The house is arranged over two storeys with two principal reception rooms, a long rear kitchen, conservatory, utility, study/garden room and three bedrooms served by a bathroom and separate WC. Much of the fabric dates from before 1900 and later additions; many internal areas and the kitchen are dated and the whole requires renovation and modernisation. The EPC rating is F and the walls are assumed uninsulated sandstone/limestone, so energy upgrades will be needed.
Practical considerations: heating is oil-fired to radiators and an oil AGA is present; mains water and a compliant private treatment plant are installed. Broadband speeds are very slow and indoor mobile signal is limited, which may affect home-working or streaming without investment in connectivity solutions. Council tax sits above average.
For buyers seeking a rural family home with strong privacy and exceptional outdoor space, this cottage is a canvas. It will suit purchasers prepared to budget for refurbishment and improvements (insulation, heating upgrades, rewiring and modern kitchens/bathrooms) who value location, plot size and long-range countryside views.
