The cottage boasts Grade II Listed charm, dating back to 1786 with 19th and 20th-century modifications. Notable features include a chamfered central surround, fluted consoles, and a moulded hood with a date stone and initials HB above. Internally, many original features have been preserved or repurposed, such as original floorboards reused in the hall, attic floorboards used as wall panelling in the dining kitchen, original stripped floorboards in the principal bedroom and bedroom three, painted exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings, boarded doors with Suffolk latches, and original lintels and sills.

The interiors are stylish, contemporary, and beautifully presented, exuding a cool, calm, and collected ambiance. The sitting room features a wooden floor and a multi-fuel stove, and is open to the hall. There is also a second reception room.

The sociable dining kitchen is a fabulous space, perfect for entertaining family and friends. The dining area is at one end, while the kitchen, overlooking the garden, is at the other.

The dining area includes a multi-fuel stove. Adjacent to the kitchen is a practical laundry room with a WC, plumbing for a washing machine, fitted cupboards, and an understairs cupboard housing a freestanding freezer.

The property offers three double bedrooms and one single. The principal bedroom is light and airy, with an apex ceiling and skylight window.
