Description
Despite its idyllic setting, local village amenities are close at hand in nearby Rock, including a primary school, village shop and traditional public house. Beautiful countryside and woodland walks are quite literally on the doorstep, making this an ideal home for those who enjoy the outdoors.
Believed to date back around 170 years, the cottage has been lovingly cared for by the current owners and remarkably has not changed hands for nearly 100 years, adding to the rich history and heritage of this wonderful home. Improvements over the years include replacement windows and a re-tiled roof. Offering charm throughout, the property now presents an exciting opportunity for a purchaser to modernise and renovate to their own individual taste, with further scope to extend if desired, subject to any necessary consents.
The accommodation briefly comprises two reception rooms, breakfast kitchen, utility room and ground floor shower room. To the first floor are three bedrooms and a house bathroom.
Outside, the gardens offer plenty of space to enjoy country living, including a vegetable patch ideal for growing produce and cut flowers. There is also an outbuilding with potential for a variety of uses such as a home office, studio or gym, subject to any necessary consents.
An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the setting, land and potential this delightful cottage has to offer. The property benefits from no upward chain. EPC = F
