Description
Long Meadow is an attractive predominantly timber framed detached Grade II Listed cottage with a large garage and gardens standing within private and landscaped grounds of approximately 0.26 acres/0.105 hectares.

Originally constructed in the 17th Century the property retains many period features that harmonise well with later additions to create a wonderful and very practical home.

Long Meadow is situated adjacent to Lower Green, on the North side of the village and is well placed for many amenities. The accommodation features three spacious reception rooms, a social kitchen/breakfast room and cloakroom on the ground floor. Upstairs are four good sized bedrooms plus a family bathroom and cloakroom.

Interestingly we understand that Long Meadow has only changed hands twice in the last 100 years. Our clients have lived at the property since 1968 making this a rarely available property!

Whilst the property may benefit from some updating and refitting, viewing in our opinion is highly recommended in order to appreciate this fabulous CHAIN FREE home.
