A striking Grade II Listed period cottage adjoining open farmland and enjoying complete privacy and seclusion with far reaching views.

This beautiful cottage comes to the market for the first time in nearly 50 years and is believed to date back to the 16th Century. Constructed of local stone elevations under a pitched tiled roof, it has attractive dormer windows and retains many of its original features making it well worthy of its Grade II Listed status. In brief the accommodation comprises a cross passage hallway with original studded front door, together with stairs rising to the first floor. To the side is a dual aspect sitting room with attractive crossbeam ceiling, window seat and open fireplace containing what looks to be a Minster fireplace. A connecting door continues through to a second reception room which again enjoys a dual aspect, exposed beams and original parquet flooring with open fireplace. At the other end of the house is an inner hall giving access to a kitchen which is now somewhat dated, together with a formal dining room with inglenook and window seat. Also present on the ground floor is a W.C., two storage cupboards and a utility.
Two staircases lead to the first floor where there are four bedrooms, a dressing room and a family bathroom with separate W.C. The property is now in need of some modernisation to bring it up to todays standards but has the potential to create a fabulous family home. To fully appreciate the character, charm and position of this superb residence a viewing is highly recommended.

The property is positioned on a quiet country lane with little passing traffic and is approached over a private driveway via ornamental wrought iron gates. The driveway which is flanked by mature flowerbeds and an attractive stone wall continues past the house to a double carport. A pedestrian gate leads to the front which enjoys a southeasterly aspect with far reaching views. Adjoining the rear of the house is a sun terrace, perfect for alfresco dining and summer entertaining, together with predominantly lawned gardens contained within natural hedgerow boundaries. Situated within is a stone built two storey barn currently used for storage but could convert to a studio, study, games room or similar, subject to necessary planning consents.
