About this home

Dating from 1847 and built by Henry Roberts, this charming Grade II listed cottage offers a wonderful combination of historic character and considered modern updates. Set along a peaceful residential setting, the property provides approximately 568.8 sq ft of well-arranged accommodation over two floors, together with its own garden and the particularly valuable benefit of parking for two vehicles. The property has recently been refurbished, with a brand-new kitchen installed in August 2026, while the combination of period character, natural light and practical accommodation creates a lovely home with plenty of charm.

The Living Accommodation A charming entrance porch opens into the welcoming reception room, where the character of this historic cottage is immediately apparent. Light pours in through the windows, creating a bright and inviting space that is easy to furnish and equally suited to relaxing or entertaining. The kitchen has been beautifully refreshed with a brand-new kitchen designed to complement the character of the property, creating a lovely balance between period charm and modern living. There is space for a dining table, making this a wonderfully sociable part of the home, while the garden can be accessed directly from here. A delightful little cubby space adds an unexpected touch of versatility and could make an ideal home office, study nook or useful additional storage area. The side access from the garden leads straight into the kitchen, a particularly practical feature for everyday living and entertaining.

Bedrooms & Bathroom The first floor provides two bedrooms and the family bathroom. Upstairs, the cottage continues to charm, with two well-proportioned bedrooms filled with natural light. The principal bedroom comfortably accommodates a double bed and benefits from useful storage, while the second bedroom offers a versatile space that could work beautifully as a single bedroom, nursery, dressing room or home office. The family bathroom is a lovely size and provides a bath with shower over, WC and wash hand basin, with the overall accommodation retaining the character and cosy proportions that make this cottage so appealing. There is also additional loft space, offering useful potential for storage, with access currently limited.

Garden & Outside Space The private garden is a real highlight of this charming cottage, offering a low-maintenance outdoor space that feels wonderfully private and inviting. There is plenty of room for a table and chairs, making it ideal for enjoying a morning coffee, entertaining friends or simply making the most of the sunshine. The garden enjoys sunshine for much of the day, while the convenient side access leads directly into the kitchen, making outdoor living wonderfully easy. To the front, the property also benefits from something particularly rare for a cottage in this location; a private driveway providing parking for two vehicles. Combined with the garden and the character of the house itself, it is a feature that makes this home especially appealing.
