Enchanting Grade II Listed Cottage Requiring Restoration

Discover the charm and history of this enchanting detached three-bedroom thatched cottage, nestled in a historic hamlet just a mile from Fordingbridge and within easy commuting distance of the Cathedral City of Salisbury. This property, believed to be late medieval to mid-1500s, is a Grade II listed gem primarily constructed with timber frames and facing brick, featuring a wealth of exposed oak beams and offering reasonable head height clearance throughout.

Believed to date back to the late medieval period to mid-1500s, this property presents a rare opportunity to restore a fantastic piece of history. While some repair works have already been completed, including upgrades to the electrics, pipework, and the installation of stylish cast iron column radiators, the cottage requires extensive renovation both internally and externally. The application for planning and listed building consent can be found under the application number 23/10115 on the New Forest District Council Planning Portal.

The proposed layout includes a cozy sitting room with an open inglenook fireplace, a ground floor bathroom, a study/guest bedroom, a country-style kitchen/breakfast room equipped with an AGA range, two first floor bedrooms, and a first floor bathroom. For added comfort, the property also benefits from gas-fired LPG central heating.

The front of the cottage faces in a South Westerly direction. A stone-built wall with flower and shrub beds retains the front boundary. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a step up from the carriageway and a crazy paved pathway leading to the secondary entrance into the kitchen/breakfast room, featuring a thatched canopy porch and coach light. Adjacent to the front garden, a pair of timber five-bar gates provides access to a wide block-paved parking area for several vehicles and leads to a detached concrete sectional garage with a stone-built fuel store to the rear. Adjacent to the fuel store, double timber screen gates secure an additional block-paved parking area, and a side gate leads from the front parking area into the enclosed rear garden, which is approximately 95ft x 60ft.

The generous 0.16-acre plot features a rear garden that includes a block-paved patio with a water tap, leading onto a lawn interspersed with various shrubs and ornamental trees. Additionally, the refurbished garage has had its electrics upgraded to provide power to a garden “pod,” offering the potential for a versatile space for a home office or studio. Simplifying the purchase process, the property is offered with no onward chain.

This historic dwelling offers a unique opportunity to restore and personalise a significant piece of architectural heritage.
