Lovingly maintained by its current owners over the past 15 years, the home boasts a recently re-thatched roof and a reclaimed slate roof on the extension, carefully chosen to complement the historic fabric of the property. Further enhancements, including a bespoke stable door and sympathetically replaced kitchen window, subtly elevate its character while preserving its timeless appeal.

Upon entering through a traditional front porch—ideal for countryside living—the charm continues into the warm and inviting sitting room. Here, an impressive inglenook fireplace with inset wood-burning stove forms a striking focal point, while dual aspect windows flood the space with natural light. Thoughtfully designed built-in cupboards offer practical storage, one discreetly housing the LPG boiler.

A winding staircase rises to the first floor where you’ll find two beautifully appointed double bedrooms, each with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and cottage-style windows. The first-floor bathroom is a rare and welcome addition, complete with a traditional white suite and electric shower over the bath.

Outside, the property is approached via timber gates leading to a private parking area for one or two vehicles. A useful storage area and timber shed provide practical solutions, while the cottage gardens unfold in a charming, informal layout—grassy areas interspersed with mature shrubs, small trees, and a suntrap seating area ideal for al fresco dining. Additional discreet storage houses the LPG bottles and there is access around the rear of the property.

This exquisite home is the perfect countryside retreat—rich in character, beautifully maintained, and nestled in an enviable village setting.
