Property description & features

Tenure: Freehold
Grade II listed Georgian house, circa 1820
Wonderful example a wooden weatherboard period home
Array of original features, including the ogee headed porch and panelled door
Beautiful and interesting, mature cottage style garden
Town centre location, adjacent to bus stops and railway station

An unexpected find, conveniently located in the town centre, opposite the railway station, this is a beautiful Grade II Listed detached cottage. Tucked behind its wall and gate, with a 'secret garden', hidden from passers by, this mature and well planned outside space is a hideaway to escape the world outside. The traditional, timber framed, wooden weatherboard front means that there may be limited mortgage options available (which our mortgage advisors will be happy to discuss with you), but those with an eye for local history will no doubt fall in love with the character of this one off property. Originally constructed circa 1820, with a later addition in the mid 19th century which house the kitchen and bathroom. The original ogee-headed roofed porch, with it's ornate acorn design and lattice panels lead you to the original door and door knocker from the stone steps. Once inside, the charm continues and you feel you could really be in a cottage in the most rural of village locations - all with the convenience of everything you need with town and transport links just a stone's throw away. This is a world away from what a young Charles Dickens might just have seen whilst living around the corner at Ordnance Terrace between 1817 and 1821. The 1866 Ordnance Survey map shows this building, when it was surrounded by its own large garden, fields to the south, a chalk put to the east and just a blacksmith's shop to the north. Back into today's time, there is also rear vehicle access where you have parking for at least 2 vehicles and a good sized shed for garden storage, with side access leading from the parking to the front garden. There is also pedestrian access on the other side from the road, so you can keep the gated entrance shut for privacy if preferred.

Please refer to the footnote regarding the services and appliances.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on December 21, 2021

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

The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on December 21, 2021

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
