Description
Step back in time without compromising on modern comfort in this enchanting 15th-century Grade II listed cottage, nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Sandling. Bursting with period charm and character, this deceptively spacious three-bedroom home offers a rare blend of history, lifestyle, and location.
Spread across three floors, the home opens into a generous lounge with original timber beams and a magnificent Inglenook fireplace, complete with a large wood-burning stove – the perfect centrepiece for cosy evenings. From here, a hallway with guest cloakroom leads to a light-filled kitchen/breakfast room, enjoying serene views over the rear garden.
Upstairs, the first floor hosts two double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite cloakroom, while the top floor boasts a beautifully appointed luxury bathroom and a further spacious double bedroom – ideal for guests, teenagers, or a peaceful home office retreat.
Outside, the charm continues with a secluded rear garden, featuring mature shrubs, a gravel patio, decked seating area, and timber shed. To the front, a classic picket fence frames the approach, with a lawned garden and pathway to the door. Views over the open paddocks to the front create a countryside backdrop that’s hard to beat.
