Description
Tucked away in a peaceful hamlet on the edge of the woods, Annie’s Cottage is a beautiful stone-built home steeped in local history and surrounded by the soothing sounds of nature. Birds sing in the treetops, a nearby stream meanders gently by, and cows occasionally call from the neighbouring fields — it’s a truly tranquil setting.
Originally built around 170 years ago, the property is affectionately named after Annie’s, a former resident who lived here almost all her life. With countryside walks from the doorstep, Jerusalem Farm and Wade Wood nearby, and cosy pubs just a short distance away, this idyllic retreat combines rural charm with everyday convenience. It also offers a rare opportunity for equestrian buyers, with land, outbuildings, and potential stabling in a sought-after location.
INSIDE THE HOME
KITCHEN
The front door opens directly into a welcoming dual-aspect kitchen, where large windows frame peaceful views over the paddock and surrounding woodland. Fitted with wooden wall, drawer, and base units, the kitchen blends rustic charm with modern convenience, featuring a recently-fitted LAMONA oven and four-ring Baumatic induction hob.
LOUNGE
Step into the lounge and you'll find a beautiful original stone fireplace with a log burning stove – perfect for cosy evenings in. The windows here overlook the wooded valley, allowing the outdoors to become part of the living experience.

PRIMARY BEDROOM
A spacious double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, dual-aspect windows, and a charming (though currently blocked) cast iron fireplace – a lovely period feature that adds character to the room.

OUTSIDE SPACE
To the front, a flagstone parking area provides parking for one car, while a further small driveway and two garages sit just over the road. These garages have previously been used as stables and could easily be converted back, creating two loose boxes and a separate tack/feed room — a huge draw for equestrian enthusiasts. Also across the road lies a paddock (approximately ¾ of an acre), bordered by Ludd Brook and extending to the bridge — ideal for those with smallholding aspirations. It includes a hen hut, run, and a further outbuilding which was formerly used as a stable.
To the rear, a flagged patio area with flowerbeds offers a peaceful outdoor spot for dining or relaxing with the sounds of nature all around.
