A charming Grade II Listed property with attached barn, garage and a beautifully kept garden ideally situated in the centre of this highly regarded village with excellent road and rail links to London

Situated in a conservation area, this most attractive 18th century Grade II Listed cottage has a warm and welcoming feel with an enormous amount of character and many period features throughout including exposed beams, fireplaces, window seats and wooden and stone flooring. Formerly the village saddlery, the cottage has evolved over the years into a lovely family home ideally situated in the heart of the village. The property also has the benefit of a garage and an attached barn offering excellent storage and the potential to be converted to extend the accommodation of the house, subject to the necessary consents. Having been in the same ownership since the 1960’s, the property has been very well maintained but the kitchen and bathrooms now require updating.

Arranged over two floors, the accommodation boasts well proportion rooms with a cellar in addition. The front door opens to the entrance hall with two reception rooms arranged either side. The sitting room is a charming room with a door to the garden, and the drawing room, arranged on two levels, enjoys a fireplace and the lovely feature of two window seats. From the drawing room a door leads to the inner hall with staircase to the first floor, access to the cellar and to the dining room. Conveniently arranged off the kitchen, the dining room provides the third reception room, another charming room with wood block flooring. The kitchen, now in need of updating, connects to the barn and has a stable door providing direct access to the garden. At first floor level are four well-proportioned double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom has an en-suite bathroom.

Providing a most attractive setting and complementing the house, is the west-facing, mature walled garden. The garden has been beautifully maintained with areas of lawn and an abundance of planting including mature borders, box hedging, shrubs and trees including fruit. A wisteria adorns the rear facade, The garage to the side of the house, provides further storage space and direct access from the front of the house to the garden.

The next steps...

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

  • They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
  • They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
  • Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
  • They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
  • They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
  • They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

  • You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
  • You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
  • Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
  • They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
  • Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
