About this property

Occupying a wonderfully private plot of just over half an acre, this charming detached character cottage offers an exceptional blend of period features, generous accommodation and exciting scope for future enhancement.

Internally, the property combines character features with versatile living space. The sitting room is full of charm, featuring original parquet flooring and wood-burning stove as a focal point. A second reception room with exposed brickwork and garden access offers flexibility as a dining room, family room or home office. The remodelled kitchen/breakfast room provides a practical and sociable heart to the home, complemented by a large utility room and cloakroom/WC.

Upstairs, there are three generous bedrooms, alongside a family bathroom.
