Description

Church Cottage presents a rare opportunity for investors and renovators to breathe new life into a historic property dating back to the late 17th century. Constructed in traditional brick with a charming pitched slate roof, this home is currently in need of comprehensive modernization. The flexible layout includes a spacious sitting room, kitchen, three bedrooms on the first floor, and a garden room that connects to the expansive back garden. Notably, the property features multiple outbuildings including a sizeable barn and workshop, which provide additional potential for alternative uses or conversion, subject to necessary permissions. With direct access to these structures and an overgrown garden ready for landscaping, Church Cottage offers substantial scope for enhancement and enlargement, making it an appealing project for those seeking to create a unique residence in a picturesque village setting.
