A PRETTY GRADE II LISTED COTTAGE IN THE HEART OF FINEDON OLD VILLAGE WITH SELF CONTAINED RETAIL/OFFICE UNIT

THE PROPERTY

The sale offers a rare chance to acquire an attractive Grade II Listed cottage in the heart of the historic old part of Finedon with separate independently accessed retail unit/office to run a business out of or rent out to generate investment income.

Berry Green Cottage is a spacious, three storey property, build circa 1870 in the local richly coloured Ironstone. Inside much of the original charm and character of the property has been retained including exposed wooden beams, window seats and wooden shutters.

The name of the property is deceptive, and to fully appreciate the opportunities and extent of accommodation on offer, we highly recommend stepping over the threshold to view.

A paved path leads to the front door and on entering the property the wood panelled hallway is welcoming, with stairs leading to the upper floors.

Also on the ground floor is a reception room with arched recesses, a brick fireplace and shuttered window, this could be used as a sitting or dining room. The kitchen lies opposite with fitted base and wall units with terracotta tiled floor.

The main sitting room lies on the first floor enjoying a double aspect with both windows affording views along the high street, also a stone feature fireplace and recessed storage cupboard. The split level landing allows access to a good size double bedroom and part paneled family bathroom with run of fitted cupboards housing the Baxi gas fired boiler and Megaflow pressurised hot water cylinder. There are two further useful recessed storage cupboards.

On the second floor are two further large bedrooms with the larger of the two benefitting from a dressing area with a run of fitted wardrobes and a dressing area along with en suite bathroom with separate glazed shower cubicle and roll top bath.
