This charming Grade II star listed semi-detached cottage is believed to date back to the 17th century with later additions. The property offers characterful family accommodation, arranged over three floors.

The front door opens into the sitting room which has a window to the front as well as a wealth of features including exposed timbers and a brick fireplace with wood-burner. To one side of the fireplace there is a useful storage cupboard. From the sitting room, steps lead down to the lovely triple aspect dining room with painted timbers, wooden flooring and a second door to the front.

To the rear of the house there is an attractive kitchen/breakfast room with a range of fitted base units, Belfast sink, space for dining table, exposed timbers and tiled floor. An open doorway leads through to a rear hall with a door to the outside and a useful ground floor shower room. On the opposite side of the kitchen, a door and steps lead down to a cellar providing a useful storage area.

From the kitchen, stairs lead up to the first floor landing providing access to the family bathroom and two bedrooms on this level. The principal bedroom has a window to the side and exposed timbers. The second bedroom is currently used as a dressing room and has a window to the front. On the second floor there is a further bedroom with exposed timbers and a window to the side.

Agents Note
The property has a 'flying freehold' (the neighbour's bathroom overhangs the property's ground floor utility room). The property also has a 'creeping freehold' as its cellar lies beneath the neighbour's living area.

Outside, the house is approached via a paved footpath leading through the small lawned garden to the front door. To the rear, there is a wood store and further store room attached to the house.

The generous rear garden is hedged and fenced on all sides and offers privacy. The mature garden is divided into various sections and includes lawned areas with mature bushes and shrubs, a summer house and shed. There is a further area of garden with some fruit trees and a greenhouse.

PLEASE NOTE: The property is to be sold via Knight Frank Auction on 14th February 2024, unless sold prior. Further information is available via the link below including the legal pack and registration for bidding.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on December 21, 2021

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
