Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • A delightful stone cottage
  • Versaitle layout
  • Four bedrooms
  • Private, mature plot of 0.42 acre
An attractive stone cottage with characterful and versatile accommodation, set within mature and private gardens of 0.42 acre.

This delightful stone cottage is built of local limestone and set beneath a Collyweston roof. There is a date stone set into the gable showing 1692, and it is thought some of the original house, pre-dates this. The property was altered and extended in the 19th and 20th Centuries, creating a comfortable family home with versatile accommodation. There are many beautiful features, including a spine beams, and an inglenook with handsome bressummer.

The front door opens to a porch which leads into the dining hall. This acts as a hub and has other rooms leading from it, including the study area, with attractive chequer tiled floor and wood burning stove. The living room is wonderfully light with windows to the east and west. The stove set into the inglenook makes a cosy focal point.

The L-shaped live in Kitchen / family room is wonderful space for daily life and mealtimes. The kitchen area is fitted with a bespoke range of antique pine furniture with hardwood work surfaces and Belfast sink. The tiled floor runs through to the family / breakfast room which has space for dining and relaxation. Doors open to the garden.

The back hall also gives access to the garden, as well as to the utility room which offers space for the usual appliances as well as a WC and wash hand basin.

The first floor is approached via stairs from the dining hall. The landing is a great size and offers space for a further study or play area. There are three double bedrooms, each with a view over the garden. The fourth bedroom is a comfortable single room with lovely rural views, and could be converted to a second bathroom, if desired. The main bathroom has a traditional feel with a roll top bath with shower above, a WC and pedestal wash basin.

Rose Cottage sits well within its garden, tucked behind a high hedge. A gated drive provides ample parking and turning space. There is plenty of room for the erection of garaging, if desired, subject to Local Authority consent. The garden is a great size and has a patio set beside the house. The main lawn runs away from the house and is surrounded by nature shrubs and hedging. A path winds into a spinney at the back of the garden, where there is space perhaps for a home office or annex to be built, without being too intrusive on the cottage. There are also garden areas beside and in front of the house, capturing the sunshine throughout the day.

Tenure - freehold with vacant possession.

EPC - Listed Grade II - exempt.

Council Tax - Band G

Services - mains electricity, water and drainage. Oil-fired central heating. Fibre broadband available.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
