High Street, Stanford in the Vale

Situated in the heart of this popular village, this characterful period cottage has been in the same family for many years and now presents an exciting opportunity for a new owner to make their mark.

Sitting in front of mature, well-established gardens, the ground floor currently comprises three versatile reception rooms arranged around a central kitchen, all retaining original charm and providing excellent potential for redesign to suit contemporary living. Upstairs, the accommodation is completed with three bedrooms and two “bathrooms”. Offered to the market with no onward chain, the property also benefits from access to a garage and allocated parking across the road, which is an uncommon advantage for homes of this nature. Overall, this is a rare chance to acquire a well-located period property ideal for buyers looking to put their own mark on their new home.
