This charming Grade II Listed cottage, nestled beside expansive farmland, offers a unique opportunity for renovation while enjoying exceptional privacy and stunning views. Having remained in the same family for nearly half a century, this residence is steeped in history dating back to the 16th Century. Constructed from local stone beneath a pitched tiled roof, its attractive dormer windows and preserved original features reflect its distinguished status. The layout includes a traditional cross passage hallway marked by an original studded front door, leading to a dual aspect sitting room with exposed beams and an inviting open fireplace featuring what appears to be a Minster style fireplace. A second reception room also benefits from dual aspects, showcasing original parquet flooring and another open fireplace. The ground floor further accommodates a dated kitchen needing modernisation, alongside a formal dining room complete with an inglenook and window seat. Additional conveniences include a W.C., utility space, and storage cupboards.
Upstairs, the property offers four bedrooms plus a dressing room along with a family bathroom that requires updating. While the cottage is in need of refurbishment to meet contemporary living standards, it presents immense potential to create an exceptional family home filled with character.
Accessed via an ornamental wrought iron gate along a tranquil country lane, the property showcases well-maintained gardens bordered by hedgerows. A stone-built two-storey barn currently utilized for storage could be transformed into additional living space such as a studio or games room, pending planning permissions. This property truly merits viewing to appreciate its distinctive charm and investment possibilities.
