Our villages are a source of local pride and many are designated as conservation areas. Within these areas there are noticeable differences in many buildings in terms of their materials, designs and details. These variations, known as local distinctiveness, give individual character to different parts of the District. In particular Lapley Hall Cottage with its preceding history has been noted within this conservation area as a “positive building”. If that dream move to the countryside is on the cards, then this unique and distinctive home nestled on this generous plot adjoining a field view aspect, cannot be missed. Charmed by an abundance of character ranging from exposed timber beams to feature fireplaces and an exceptionally versatile layout. Accommodation includes five bedrooms, two of which have ensuite, a family bathroom, guest w/c, annex like possibilities with a snug which leads to a kitchenette/utility. Two further reception rooms via a living room and separate dining room. Superb breakfast kitchen, an office, garage/gym and truly stunning gardens teaming with wildlife.
