Oxford Road, Rugby

This Grade II Listed thatched property is believed to date back in part to the 16th Century and has been divided to form a two bedroomed cottage known as Primrose Thatch and an adjoining self-contained one bedroomed annexe known as The Grain Barn. With possibilities for opening the accommodation up to form one three bedroomed cottage, or alternatively, having potential as an Air BnB or separate rental for the annexe, the property boasts a wealth of character including exposed beams and brickwork with Primrose Thatch offering excellent potential for refurbishment.
The Grain Barn has been modernised and, whilst again having exposed beams and brickwork, also features a modern high spec kitchen, wet room style shower and lounge with underfloor heating. The Grain Barn benefits from an allocated parking space in the neighbouring courtyard, whilst Primrose Thatch has the benefit of a detached thatched garage with parking for at least two cars in front, an adjoining studio and potential for other uses, subject to appropriate consents.
Overall this is an excellent opportunity to purchase an immensely characterful Grade II Listed property offering excellent potential and considerable flexibility for occupation in differing ways.
