3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A semi detached 16th century cottage, a particularly beautiful building featuring some immensely impressive and characterful rooms with a private south westerly facing garden quietly situated on the edge of this highly sought after village.

A charming linked Grade II Listed period cottage forming part of a former farmhouse, featuring beautiful exposed beams and surprisingly spacious, well lit rooms with generously proportioned windows. The property benefits from a south westerly facing rear garden, a double carport, and an attractive edge of village setting with direct access to extensive countryside walks. Planning permission TVBC 24/01000/LBWS has been granted to demolish two small extensions and create a significantly larger ground floor, including a spacious kitchen breakfast room with glass doors to the garden, a separate utility room, and a new principal front entrance. The existing kitchen will be reconfigured to provide a boot room, ground floor shower room, and a proper staircase to the third bedroom, which is currently accessed via the second bedroom through a low doorway or by a ladder staircase, representing a substantial improvement to the layout and overall functionality of the cottage.

The property is situated in the village of Broughton which offers everyday amenities including a Community Post Office/store, doctors’ surgery, village hall, church, public house, community pub and a primary school. There is excellent walking in the surrounding countryside with access onto the Clarendon Way and Broughton Down.
