A charming detached 19th-century thatched cottage in Charlton Horethorne.

A rare opportunity to acquire a quintessential three-bedroom period cottage in one of the area’s most picturesque and sought-after villages. Golden Valley Farm Cottage is set along a peaceful country lane, enjoying far reaching countryside views and wonderful character throughout. With a thatched roof, inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and beautifully scenic gardens, this delightful home offers a truly idyllic rural lifestyle with the added benefit of full-fibre broadband. Positioned within walking distance of the village pub/restaurant, shop and primary school, and offering potential to extend (subject to planning), this is a cottage that will appeal to those seeking charm, tranquillity and everyday convenience.

Ground Floor
The cottage is entered via a solid front door which opens into a welcoming hallway with space for coats and shoes and stairs leading to the first floor with storage space beneath. The sitting room is a particularly inviting space with a window overlooking the front garden and a beautiful inglenook fireplace with original bread oven, set within a mix of Ham stone and red brick. The fireplace also features a charming brick-arched internal window that provides a glimpse through to the dining room. Exposed wooden beams add warmth and character, and a step leads up to a cosy nook fitted with shelving, currently used as a library. The dual-aspect dining room enjoys lovely countryside views and can be accessed both from the sitting room and the rear entranceway.

The kitchen is fitted with cream wall and base units, white mini-metro tiling and a stainless-steel 1½ bowl sink with swan-neck tap, integral single oven, four-ring hob and extractor. To the left, the utility room is exceptionally practical and includes a built-in storage cupboard, ceramic Belfast sink, worktop with space below for a washing machine and dishwasher with wooden shelving above and opposite further space for a large fridge/freezer and tumble dryer. To the right of the kitchen, the rear entrance area provides convenient cloakroom space and sits next to the downstairs WC, fitted with a traditional high-level cistern, basin and obscured window.

First Floor The principal bedroom is a lovely dual-aspect room with beautiful countryside views. Exposed beams enhance the character of the space, and a high wall niche serves as a useful shelf. Industrial style hanging rails offer functional yet stylish storage. Bedroom two is a generously sized dual aspect room which enjoys an abundance of natural light and is positioned on in its own half-landing midway up the staircase, creating an appealing guest suite or peaceful retreat. Bedroom three, currently used as a dressing room, overlooks the front of the property and is fitted with rails and shelving but could equally accommodate a mid-sleeper bed. The family bathroom features an enclosed rainfall shower with screen door and inset shelf, WC and two drawer vanity unit with basin. An illuminated mirror with Bluetooth, de-mister and shaver point adds modern convenience, while exposed beams retain the cottage’s charm. Loft access is available via both the kitchen and the landing.
