Step through the charming timber gates and into a world of character at this delightful Grade II listed cottage, a home that feels like part of the English countryside’s rich tapestry. Nestled behind beautifully landscaped gardens brimming with mature shrubs, flowers and fruit trees, this three-bedroom property offers a rare blend of period charm and practical living.

The partly glazed hardwood door beneath a traditional thatched canopy sets the tone for what lies beyond. Inside, the entrance opens into a warm and inviting lounge, where a brick-built fireplace takes centre stage. From here, you’ll discover a front snug framed by panoramic garden views – the perfect spot for a morning coffee bathed in sunlight.

An open-plan flow leads into the dining room, an ideal setting for family gatherings, with a rear window capturing picturesque garden views and a half-glazed door opening out to the patio. Just off the living area, there is the breakfast room, complete with bespoke carved cabinetry and a door leading directly to the front patio. The adjacent kitchen carries the same sense of tradition, featuring a stable door to the garden, a double sink beneath twin windows and plentiful storage.

The ground floor is home to two double bedrooms, each thoughtfully placed to make the most of the garden outlooks, alongside a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. A staircase leads to a spacious landing – ideal as a reading nook or study – and from here, you’ll find the third bedroom, another comfortable double with a charming front aspect.

Outside, the gardens are a true delight. To the front, sweeping lawns frame a crazy-paved path and the detached garage sits conveniently within the front garden. The rear garden enjoys complete seclusion with lawned areas, a variety of fruit trees and two sunny patios for outdoor dining. Practicality comes in the form of rear vehicle access via double timber gates leading to a gravelled driveway (access of Vicarage Road).

This is a home for those who crave a connection to heritage and nature without compromising on space or lifestyle. Whether you’re enjoying a summer evening under the thatched porch, entertaining in the garden, or curling up by the fire on a winter’s night, this characterful cottage promises a life well lived.
