An attractive, Grade ll Listed period home that forms the larger part of this delightful pair of red brick cottages. Believed to date back to the mid-18th century and formerly one dwelling, the original cottage was extended and sub-divided in the late 19th century.
Having been loved and cherished by the current owners for an impressive 50 years, there is now an opportunity for an incoming buyer to put their own stamp and flair on the property.

This beautiful cottage retains much charm and character to include exposed wall and ceiling timbers, latch doors and the original brick floor in the sitting room.
The accommodation in brief offers: Sitting room with fireplace and wood burning stove, separate dining room with marble fireplace and a kitchen on the ground floor. A few steps up leads through to the utility room and family bathroom. The first floor provides three generous size bedrooms.

One of the standout features and a real credit to the current owners, is the beautifully tended gardens that wrap around the property. Parking will never be an issue as there is gated, driveway parking, a valuable commodity often not found when buying a period home.

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

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
