Description

A Grade II listed three bedroom detached character cottage with front and rear gardens, and driveway parking, located in the centre of the Hertfordshire village of Pirton, being sold with no upper chain. The property was originally an historic Beer House and is said to date back to the 16th century or possibly earlier. It was converted into a house in the 1950s and then given the Grade II listing for its physical timber structure and many period features. The current owners have lived at the cottage for over 30 years and have retained its character while improving it throughout, including a new roof, underfloor heating, and rewiring about 10 years ago.

There is over 1,350 sq. ft. of accommodation over two floors. The ground floor has a reception hallway with a wide opening to the dining room and a door to the kitchen/breakfast room. There is also a sitting room and an office with a cloakroom. The first floor has three bedrooms and a four piece family bathroom.

The front of the property has driveway parking for one car. The rear garden has been landscaped for ease of maintenance and has a covered seating area and an additional outbuilding which is divided into two sheds.
