Description

A wonderful chance to acquire a beautiful example of a Grade II Listed thatch cottage, situated in an idyllic spot overlooking horse paddocks to the side.

The internal accommodation comprises: Ground floor: Entrance hall with cast iron spiral staircase to first floor; Bathroom with freestanding, claw foot, roll top bath, WC, wash hand basin and window to side; Lounge (4.7m x 2.67m) with inglenook fireplace and log burner, exposed ceiling and wall timbers and windows to front and rear; Kitchen (4.17m x 2.67m) with country style base units, exposed red brick wall, wall and ceiling timbers, door and window to front and stairs to Bedroom 2/Landing.

The property sits in the centre of its plot with gardens to the front and rear, mainly laid to lawn, but with mature perimeter beds.
