An exciting opportunity to restore and extend a charming thatched cottage in a rural position, surrounded by picturesque countryside.
Description
A delightful Grade II listed country cottage, built late 16th, early 17th Century with an abundance of charm including exposed brick, ceiling beams and a pretty thatched roof.

Currently there are Two/three reception rooms and three/four generously proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms. A particular highlight is the sitting room; a very atmospheric room with a double aspect, a large inglenook fireplace and exposed ceiling beams. The current vendor has recently secured planning permission for a two storey rear extension creating space for a triple aspect kitchen/breakfast room and utility with principal bedroom and en suite above linked to the original cottage via a glazed link.
