Description
Property Description
Originally two cottages and an attached barn, the current owner has lovingly converted the property into one substantial residence, creating a truly unique and versatile home of almost 2,000 sq. ft. Offering 4–5 bedrooms and 3–4 reception rooms, it can easily adapt to suit family living, multi-generational needs, or home-working arrangements. Rich in period charm, the property features original wooden beams, Inglenook fireplaces, flagstone floors, and quirky staircases, while also benefitting from thoughtful modern updates.
Ground Floor
The welcoming living room is anchored by an impressive Inglenook fireplace with working wood-burning stove and flagstone flooring, leading into a lower dining area with steps rising to parts of the first floor. A spacious, well-fitted shaker-style kitchen features wooden worktops, a range-style cooker, and space for a breakfast table, along with a separate utility room with plumbing for laundry appliances. This opens into a bright secondary reception room with skylights and French doors to the rear garden. The ground floor also offers a further large reception room (ideal as a bedroom or home office), an additional versatile lower-level room, and a downstairs WC.
First Floor
The primary bedroom is a spectacular space, featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed joists, and a wonderful sense of volume. Two further generous double bedrooms, each full of charm, are served by two separate three-piece bathrooms, offering comfort and convenience. Uniquely, the property has two staircases to the first floor, enhancing its flexible layout.
Outside
The property occupies an enviable plot with parking for four cars (two at the front and two to the rear) and an enclosed rear garden that enjoys a delightful outlook over the neighbouring historic church. There is also potential to add a garage or car port to the rear parking area, subject to the necessary permissions. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home that so effortlessly blends centuries-old character with adaptable, family-friendly living spaces. With its exceptional setting, unique history, and abundance of charm, this one-of-a-kind cottage simply must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
