Occupying an exceptional position on the edge of Whiteparish, this outstanding residence is widely regarded as one of the village's most iconic homes.

Dating from the early 1900s, the cottage seamlessly combines timeless character with the comforts of modern living. The current owners have undertaken a meticulous renovation programme, carefully preserving the property's architectural charm while enhancing it to an exacting standard throughout.

The welcoming entrance hall provides access to the principal reception spaces.

Above is an additional room currently utilised as a gym, offering further versatility. A separate brick and timber barn provides excellent additional storage.

The beautifully maintained gardens enjoy sunshine throughout the day, creating a peaceful and private environment from sunrise to sunset. Beyond the formal gardens lies approximately 9 acres of pastureland, an increasingly rare feature that further enhances the property's appeal and sense of space.
