Description

This charming period home dates back to the late 1800s, offering a wonderful blend of character features and modern convenience. Nestled in a peaceful rural setting, the property enjoys tranquil countryside surroundings while remaining within easy reach of the picturesque village of Doveridge and excellent transport links via the A50, providing convenient access to nearby towns and day-to-day amenities.

In recent years, the property has benefited from the installation of new UPVC double-glazed windows, enhancing both efficiency and comfort.

Set within a generous, mature garden plot, the grounds are predominantly laid to lawn and feature an array of established shrubs, colourful borders, and mature trees that create a beautiful and private outdoor space. Surrounded by open arable farmland, the property enjoys far-reaching rural views and presents abundant potential to discerning buyers seeking a country lifestyle.
