DESCRIPTION
Nestled in the tranquil, highly sought-after 'little Hungerford' part of Hermitage, 1 Warborough Cottages offers a unique opportunity to acquire a charming period property situated on a quiet, peaceful country lane. This beautiful cottage, brimming with character, spans an impressive 1,266ft2 across two floors. While perfectly habitable, the property is in need of updating and modernisation, presenting a blank canvas for the discerning buyer to create their dream home tailored to modern living standards.
The ground floor boasts two substantial reception rooms: a generous living room and a separate sitting room, offering versatile space for family life and entertaining. One of the reception rooms has previously been used as an annex. A bright & airy kitchen/diner, complete with a useful adjacent pantry and a separate WC, completes the ground floor layout.

Ascending to the first floor, you will find three well-proportioned bedrooms, all served by a family bathroom.

OUTSIDE
The cottage is complemented by a charming, well-established garden featuring mature trees, shrubs, and neat hedging that provide colour, texture, and privacy year-round. Mostly laid to lawn, the garden offers generous space for leisure and future landscaping, along with a private driveway for up to three cars. Together, the outdoor space enhances the cottage’s period character. Combined with its tranquil setting and potential for further improvement, 1 Warborough Cottages represents an excellent lifestyle investment in one of Hermitage’s most attractive locations.
