Description

This delightful part-thatched, Grade II Listed detached cottage offers spacious and flexible accommodation set over two floors. Dating back to the late 1600s, the property is steeped in history and has served a variety of uses over the years. Once two separate dwellings and later a pair of village shops, it is now a characterful family home that retains many of its original features.
The cottage provides 4–5 bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, along with a further 3–4 bedrooms and a family bathroom. On the ground floor, there are two generous reception rooms—a welcoming sitting room and a separate dining room. The heart of the home is the fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room, complemented by a practical utility/boot room and an additional shower room.

Outside, the property benefits from driveway parking for several vehicles to the side and rear, together with a large, detached garage. A gated private garden provides excellent seclusion and includes dedicated entertaining areas, a workshop, and an additional outbuilding. As a Listed property, the cottage is EPC exempt.
