This beautifully presented period home has been thoughtfully updated by the current owners to create a perfect blend of character and contemporary comfort. Recent improvements include a brand new, high quality fitted kitchen, complete internal redecoration, new double-glazed wood-casement doors and windows, and the installation of a modern air source heat pump central heating system.

Originally two individual cottages, the property dates back to the 1860s and is believed to have been constructed by the stonemasons responsible for rebuilding Exton Hall after a devastating fire. Many of the materials used are thought to have been salvaged from the original hall, adding fascinating provenance and authenticity to the home.
Not listed, but renovations carried out sympathetic to the period, there is scope for extension and further development subject to planning approval.

Inside, the property is brimming with period detail, including exposed beams, original fireplaces, and feature stonework, all of which contribute to its distinctive character. The ground floor offers two spacious reception rooms. A well-appointed, new high quality kitchen with oak worktops, shower room with a double walk-in rainfall shower and bespoke inset basin unit.

The first floor comprises three comfortable double bedrooms with built-in storage, each full of charm and showcasing many of the home’s original features.

Externally, the property occupies a generous and beautifully landscaped plot with gardens to the front, side, and rear. The various seating areas offer privacy and tranquility—perfect for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the sunshine. To the rear the elevated garden features views across open countryside and the garden room, ideal home office or gym. To the side is a gravel driveway with off road parking for two cars. The attractive front orchard containing mature shrubs and plants, apple and plum trees, presents a range of possibilities—whether retained as a charming garden feature, adapted to provide extra parking or, subject to planning approval, developed to accommodate a garage.
