Description

This charming three-bedroom Grade II listed semi-detached cottage, dating back to the 16th century, offers a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the picturesque village of Kirby-le-Soken. Conveniently located near local amenities and only a short drive from Frinton-on-Sea, the property boasts original features that reflect its historic character. The interior consists of a spacious lounge with an Inglenook fireplace and exposed beams, providing a cozy atmosphere, while the kitchen retains wood-fronted units ready for modern upgrades. A versatile dining room or potential third bedroom includes another brick fireplace, adding to the property’s charm. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms showcase their historical significance through period details and multiple sash windows that invite natural light. The bathroom features classic elements such as a roll-top bath but could benefit from modernization. Outside, the property is set on approximately a quarter-acre plot featuring mature shrubs and trees, along with an existing timber garage/workshop. Previously approved plans exist to convert this space into a one-bedroom cottage—an enticing prospect for buyers looking to maximize rental potential or create additional living space (subject to planning permission). With off-street parking available via a shingle driveway, this property represents not just a home, but also an investment opportunity steeped in history waiting for renovation.
