A superb, individual, detached cottage with a wealth of charm and character in a highly desirable village location.

The spacious and well-presented accommodation includes two characterful reception rooms, two double bedrooms, snug/bedroom 3, kitchen and utility and the modern comforts of gas central heating and double glazing are installed.

This delightful cottage will appeal to a wide range of buyers and internal viewings come highly recommended to appreciate the location, accommodation and gardens on offer.

The present owners have taken a keen interest in the property’s past and have advised us that the cottage, which is steeped in history, was originally thatched and in later years became a tap house pub called the ‘Sportsman’s Arms’. It was then converted into two cottages until, more recently again, in the 1950s it became the village tearoom. More details available on request!
