Situated on the edge of Owls Green adjoining attractive open farmland, Willow Cottage stands within a large mature garden. It is a detached period cottage constructed of rendered brick elevations, with decorative pargetting, under a pantile roof. The living space is well laid out with plenty of character, and whist it is generally well maintained, would benefit from some updating.

The kitchen has brick flooring with wall and base mounted units, sink, space for cooker and a brick chimney breast housing a Rayburn. This leads through a breakfast area to the utility room which has space for a washing machine, base unit and door to the garden. The study has a fireplace with mantelpiece and French doors leading to the garden.

The sitting room features wooden floorboards and has a brick fireplace housing a wood-burner and a south-facing bay window. The adjoining dining room is dual aspect with brick flooring and glazed double doors opening to the garden room.

Stairs ascend to the first-floor landing, off which are four double bedrooms, served by a family bathroom with a white bath with tongue and groove panelling, WC and handbasin.

The gardens surround the cottage with expanses of lawn, a kitchen garden and an orchard with fruit trees and a summerhouse.
