A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented and characterful three-bedroom cottage in the highly sought-after village of Wilmington. Offered chain-free, this home comes with planning permission (and completed footings) for a self-contained one-bedroom annexe in the rear garden — an ideal addition for families, multigenerational living, or investors. With countryside walks on the doorstep, excellent schools nearby including Wilmington Grammar, and superb commuter links, this property combines rural charm with modern convenience.
The Property
Butterfly Cottage is steeped in character yet finished to a high standard throughout. The ground floor offers a bright and spacious living room complete with a feature log burner, leading through to a well-fitted kitchen and a conservatory at the rear, ideal for dining or relaxing while overlooking the garden. A versatile third bedroom is also located on the ground floor, perfect as a guest room, study, or playroom. Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms, along with a modern family bathroom.
Outside, the property enjoys a good-sized south-facing rear garden with a mix of lawn and decked seating areas, plus side access for added convenience. The front of the property offers a driveway providing off-road parking.
