Lavender Cottage, Main Road, Biddenham

Superbly located within this very highly-regarded village, a delightful period cottage with pretty gardens and driveway parking for sale by Public Auction on Wednesday 5th August 2026.

With well-presented accommodation over three floors, this charming thatched cottage is nicely set back from the road with mature hedges and trees that provide a very good degree of privacy. Internally, accommodation includes two first-floor bedrooms and a second-floor loft room, and on the ground floor is a sizeable triple-aspect living room, a well-appointed kitchen, and a shower room. A vehicular entrance leads to a gravelled area of hardstanding with a secluded principal garden, plus a pedestrian gate leading to a second area of garden. To the side of the pedestrian gate, a pathway leads past No. 55 to a period timber outbuilding with a tiled roof which is divided into sheds, one (with a white door) being part of the property.
