Ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers, or buyers searching for a characterful second home, this two-bedroom cottage captures everything special about country living. Surrounded by open landscape and offering privacy, charm, and a calm outdoor lifestyle, it’s a home that immediately feels inviting.

This character cottage creates an immediate sense of warmth and comfort, shaped by thick stone walls, exposed beams and a layout that feels both practical and welcoming. The main living spaces flow naturally, offering cosy areas to relax while still feeling light and usable day to day. The kitchen blends modern fittings with traditional style, centred around a breakfast bar that works well for casual meals or quiet mornings. Adjoining spaces feel intimate and full of atmosphere, making them ideal for entertaining or slow evenings at home. The bedroom space continues the calm feel, with period features, good proportions and a restful outlook. The bathroom is neatly finished, combining traditional touches with modern convenience. Outside, the garden feels like an extension of the home, offering paved seating areas, established planting and open views across the surrounding land. A private hot tub spot adds a sense of quiet luxury, making the most of the rural setting and appealing to buyers who enjoy outdoor living without heavy upkeep.

The local area strengthens the appeal, offering a true rural feel while remaining connected. Nearby villages provide everyday amenities, local pubs and a strong sense of community, while wider transport links allow access to larger towns for work or leisure. The surrounding countryside encourages walking, cycling and time outdoors, making this an ideal choice for those seeking balance, calm and a slower pace of life.
