About this property
Lateral living
Perfectly positioned just a quarter of a mile from the highly sought-after woodland village of West Hill and set within a generous plot of approximately half an acre, this unique property offers not only a delightful home but also exciting opportunities for income generation, multi-generational living, or seamless home working.
Accommodation
Believed to date back to the early 19th Century, the main four-bedroom cottage is rich in character, showcasing exposed timber ceiling beams, stone inglenook-style fireplaces, and traditional stone flooring, each feature reflecting its historic charm. Thoughtfully modernised and extended over the years, the home now provides comfortable and flexible accommodation suited to modern living.
Main House
The ground floor offers a warm and inviting sitting room, complete with a charming fireplace, wood fuel burner, and a characterful bread oven. Sliding doors lead through to an equally appealing dining room, creating an ideal space for both relaxed family living and entertaining. The kitchen enjoys a classic country cottage feel, featuring a tiled floor and distinctive timber beams. Also on this level is a well-proportioned bedroom with en-suite shower room, perfect for guests or those requiring ground floor living. A turning staircase with elegant wrought iron balustrades leads to the first floor, where three further bedrooms are arranged as two doubles and a single, complemented by a family bathroom fitted with a white suite.

This well-appointed space includes a spacious sitting room with French doors opening onto a private terrace, a kitchen fitted with warm oak units, a double bedroom overlooking the garden, and a modern shower room - ideal for extended family, guests, or rental potential.
