About this home

Completely rethatched in September 2026.

Welcome to this charming Grade II listed detached cottage, nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Great Bowden. Beautifully renovated by the current owners, this delightful home perfectly blends modern comfort with an abundance of period character.

Upon entering through the traditional solid timber door, complete with a level bell pull, you are greeted by a welcoming hallway showcasing exposed beams and a section of the original stone wall. A glass door opens to the rear garden and ensures the space receives plenty of natural light.

To the left of the hallway is the dining room, featuring a stone fireplace with an electric fire and a staircase leading to the first floor. Beyond the dining room lies the kitchen, which has been exceptionally renovated to highlight a pitched roof with exposed beams, a range of bespoke cabinetry, integrated appliances, and underfloor heating.

Returning to the hall, you'll find the lounge, the oldest part of the property, where the home's history is on full display. This characterful room boasts a large original fireplace, exposed beams, and a second staircase rising to the first floor. Leading off the lounge, the former study has been cleverly converted into a utility room and shower room, adding practicality to the layout. A further reception room / third bedroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, there are two generously sized bedrooms, both featuring dual-aspect windows, built-in wardrobes, and exposed beams. The principal bedroom benefits from its own ensuite shower room, while the second bedroom is served by a recently added family bathroom, complete with a stylish roll-top bath. A second stairwell leads conveniently from the bathroom down to the lounge.

Outside, the property offers off-road parking for multiple vehicles, a lean-to to the side, and a front garden that sets the home back nicely from the road. The spacious rear garden has been tastefully landscaped, featuring a patio area, lawn, and a detached home office (10'00 x 9'00) equipped with power, lighting, and two windows. The garden also includes three additional storage outbuildings, offering plenty of versatility.
