This historic stone cottage, believed to date back to the 1700s, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the tranquil hamlet of East End, on the outskirts of North Leigh. Surrounded by picturesque countryside, this property combines charm with potential for further enhancements. The cottage has maintained character through its original features, including exposed stone work and traditional fireplaces. Significant updates have already been made by the current owners over the past three decades, such as modernizing the boiler, roof, windows, and doors, along with structural improvements including repointing and an extension.
The property boasts a spacious living room featuring dual fireplaces and light-filled leaded windows. A separate dining room with parquet flooring leads into a functional kitchen equipped with various units. The ground floor includes a versatile bedroom and shower room while upstairs you will find four well-sized bedrooms alongside a family bathroom.
A standout feature is the expansive south-easterly garden offering privacy and serenity, complemented by mature landscaping and a covered outdoor seating area ideal for alfresco dining. The smaller courtyard garden at the rear adds further outdoor space potential. Furthermore, there’s ample off-road parking and a double tandem garage that could be reimagined into additional living space (subject to planning permission). With an EPC rating of E, this property has promising renovation prospects that could significantly enhance its value.
