SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION
Over the past three centuries, the property has undergone a series of thoughtful alterations and additions, culminating in the beautiful and spacious home that stands today-a true testament to architectural evolution and period craftsmanship.
This remarkable residence offers a wealth of historical features and timeless elegance throughout its many rooms. The layout comprises four generous bedrooms and four individual reception rooms, each brimming with unique period details. The presence of two separate staircases adds a further layer of interest and character, providing distinct access points to the upper floor-ideal for flexible family living or guest arrangements.
The cottage is positioned on majestic, mature, and extensive grounds, offering a rare sense of privacy and tranquillity. Located directly opposite the original village green and church, the setting is as idyllic as it is historically rich.
A range of useful outbuildings accompanies the main residence, including a double carport. The current owners have applied for permission to convert this space into a separate annexe-a potential project that could further enhance the versatility and value of this already outstanding home (subject to planning permission).
This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of English heritage in an enchanting village setting-perfect for those seeking a home with soul, stature, and story.
