Description
4 Carswell Marsh Cottages, a delightful period cottage, Listed Grade II, dates from the late 17th century and is believed to be the oldest property in the hamlet.

There are leaded window lights and tiled flooring to the ground floor. The entrance hall has a stable door to the front on to the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is double aspect with a massive fireplace, fitted oven and hob with a useful pantry off. The sitting/dining room is also double aspect with a study off which could also be an additional bedroom. On the first floor, which is accessed off two separate staircases, are three well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms.
To the rear is a gated entrance opening on to gravelled parking and to the front is an attractive, south facing garden with apple and pear trees and boxed edged lawns creating private and sheltered space for relaxing or entertaining.
