House For Sale £300,000
An Elizabethan Grade II listed mid terrace thatched cottage - a pure delight if you are looking for that quintessential home. Circa 1580, the current owner has re-instated the cannon to the front of the property which the local community have embraced and re-engages with the history of the house. Embellished in character throughout to provide comfortable accommodation over three floors. The front door opens into a spacious sitting room with inglenook fireplace taking pride of place, rear passage and bathroom. Stairs lead down to kitchen (basement) and turned stairs rise to first floor to comprise spacious bedroom with walk-in wardrobe. This room was split into two rooms when our client purchased the property and can be put back to two rooms if desired.
Front
Brick pathway leads past the neighbouring property with steps up to front door. Door to basement and area of lawn whereby the re-instated cannon stands proud.
