Honington, Shipston-On-Stour

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a beautiful Grade II Listed thatched cottage surrounded by picturesque gardens in a desirable village.

Dating back to the early 18th century, this charming period cottage features original character with cob walls and a thatched roof. Inside, you will find a hand-built wooden kitchen equipped with an oil-fired Esse range cooker that heats the downstairs radiators. The sitting room overlooks the front garden and boasts a large inglenook fireplace, as well as a lovely window seat near the main entrance. There is also a quaint dining room with another window seat offering a view of the garden. The downstairs bathroom includes an electric immersion heater, a bath, and a shower overhead.

Upstairs, there are two interconnecting bedrooms, each with electric storage heaters. Attached to the cottage is a useful weatherboarded store, complete with a Belfast sink and plumbing for a washing machine, providing ample storage and an open loft space above. Additionally, there is a detached single wooden garage with storage at the rear and a driveway that accommodates two cars in tandem.

The garden is stunning and reminiscent of fairy tales, featuring a small gate that opens to a central rose-lined pathway leading to the front door. The garden boasts fruit trees, vegetable patches, and a variety of shrubs and bulbs that bloom in every season.

Please note that the rear part of the garden is occupied under a lease from Honington Hall, which costs £350 per annum (shown in pink on the map).
