A rare and highly versatile opportunity to acquire a charming three bedroom detached Victorian cottage with additional one bedroom annexe, together with a recently refurbished two bedroom detached timber built dwelling and a 3 bedroom detached timber lodge, all set within a substantial plot of approximately two thirds of an acre. Offering excellent flexibility for multi generational living, home and income potential, holiday letting opportunities or a lifestyle purchase, this unique property combines period character with modern energy efficient accommodation.
The Victorian cottage is full of character and has been well maintained by the current owners. Recent improvements include a replacement slate roof installed approximately two years ago, LPG gas central heating, UPVC double glazing and solar panels providing hot water. The accommodation includes a welcoming reception area with cloakroom, a kitchen/breakfast room with access to the rear garden, and a cosy family snug featuring a superb inglenook fireplace complete with bressummer beam, bread oven and wood burning stove. The snug leads through to the lounge, which benefits from exposed pine flooring, a further fireplace with wood burner and access to a conservatory overlooking the garden.
On the first floor are three double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with a dual aspect overlooking the front and rear. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower attachment, whilst a separate WC houses the pressurised hot water cylinder. Outside, the cottage enjoys an attractive south facing garden, ample off road parking and a second conservatory, providing excellent additional living space.
Complementing the main residence is a detached two bedroom timber built property which has recently been granted planning permission for residential use. Finished to a high standard throughout, the accommodation centres around a spacious open plan lounge, dining and kitchen area, creating a bright and sociable living environment. Both double bedrooms benefit from quality en suite facilities, making the property ideally suited to independent living, guest accommodation or rental purposes. Outside, a generous decked seating area overlooks the surrounding countryside, providing an excellent space for outdoor entertaining and relaxation whilst enjoying the peaceful semi rural setting.
Designed with sustainability and low running costs in mind, the detached dwelling benefits from solar panels with a 9kW battery storage system, all electric heating and cooking facilities, double glazing, excellent insulation and air conditioning. The property is offered fully furnished, including kitchen appliances, allowing an incoming purchaser a ready to occupy opportunity.
The extensive grounds total approximately two thirds of an acre and provide a variety of outdoor spaces to enjoy. There is parking for multiple vehicles, two EV charging points, a detached office building and a bike shed. Within the grounds is a further outbuilding which may offer scope for ancillary accommodation, holiday letting or other alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents. This provides excellent scope for a variety of future uses, including supplementary accommodation, home working or income generating opportunities, subject to the necessary consents.
Occupying a delightful semi rural setting surrounded by attractive countryside, the property enjoys easy access to a network of country walks and cycling routes whilst remaining convenient for nearby amenities.
