Beautiful detached, four-bedroom period cottage the oldest part of which is thought to be C17 and part of an old coach house to an adjoining property (no longer in existence). It is situated in a secluded spot just a short walk from open countryside and only a short distance from a village pub, Cowden village and Cowden mainline train station.

This lovely property sits on a generous plot in a rural position with views over the large well-maintained garden.

The property would make a wonderful family home in a tucked away location. An early viewing is highly recommended in order to appreciate the overall appeal, size of the plot and stunning rural feel. It is thought to have potential to extend, renovate and develop the property, subject to the necessary planning consent.

Inside the property on the ground floor are two large reception rooms currently used as a reception room with an elegant brick surround fireplace, and a large formal dining room with stairs to the first floor. A large kitchen breakfast room with a good range of wall and base units and drawers under worktops and an oil-fired Aga, which could be opened up to create a large room overlooking the garden.
The ground floor has an entrance hall with a formal front door and also gives outside access to the ground floor annexe, which comprises a large bedroom and shower room with wc.

The first floor is made up of three bedrooms and a family bathroom.

To the outside the property has a large garden with orangery, workshop, an open wooden barn structure and two sheds. The property has parking for a number of cars.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on May 18, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
