Windmill Lane, Ladbroke, Southam

Being quietly and attractively positioned within Ladbroke village, this extended semi-detached cottage adjoins a former dairy and exudes character with exposed timbers to the majority of rooms. One of the significant advantages of the cottage is its suitability for family living with two separate reception rooms, four bedrooms and two bathrooms, whilst the kitchen has been extended to form a large open plan kitchen, dining and family room extending across the rear of the property. This in itself is a rare feature in a character property such as this. No less impressive is the rear garden which, in addition to being well proportioned, has been beautifully landscaped and planted with alfresco dining areas, lawned areas and a large pond. To the front of the property there is parking, giving direct access to a larger than average garage. The property is gas centrally heated with solar panels also contributing significantly to the running costs. Overall this is an excellent opportunity to purchase a characterful four bedroomed cottage in an equally characterful and peaceful village location.

We understand that mains water, gas, electricity and drainage are connected to the property. We have not carried out any form of testing of appliances, central heating or other services and prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves as to their condition and efficiency.
