2 Bed Detached House For Sale

A Grade II Listed two bedroom cottage with an enclosed rear garden, driveway parking and retained period features throughout, located in the centre of the Village. This early 19th-century, double fronted cottage with both slate and tiled roofs, has accommodation of over 1,500 sq. ft. arranged over two floors. The ground floor offers formal sitting and dining rooms with bay windows at the front, exposed beams, log burning stoves, and wooden wall panelling. A rear entrance hall leads to utility and shower rooms, and a more recent extension contains the family and kitchen/breakfast rooms. The first floor, accessed from a staircase behind a door in the kitchen, has two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.

The rear garden is enclosed by timber fencing and has a paved seating and entertaining area, which leads to a lawn and a rear driveway with parking for four cars.

Robin Hood Cottage as it is now called, was built in around 1810 by James Spriggins of Walkern, and later purchased in 1877 by Fordham brewers of Ashwell. It is now a family home and has been sympathetically refurbished and updated over the years.
