Bailiffs Cottage is an attractive Grade II listed property with light rooms and good ceiling heights. The south-facing sitting room and snug are light and have exposed beams and fires. There is a double-aspect dining room with adjacent kitchen, utility room and cloakroom. Subject to planning it may be possible to open the kitchen into the dining room.
On the first floor there are three bedrooms and a newly fitted bathroom with the third bedroom currently being used as a study. The property has been well maintained and updated by the current owner who has replaced the septic tank and thatch, as well as re-wiring and re-plumbing.
The pretty garden is south-east facing and mainly laid to lawn with a variety of shrubs and fruit trees including apple, pear and plum. It is wonderfully private and partly walled to the south. There is a useful garden room/home office with terrace, a single garage and garden store/former garage. Planning was granted in April 2024 to replace the former garage.
