Description
Believed to date back over 300 years, Cardinals Cottage is a wonderfully proportioned one-bedroom cottage immersed in the history and character of the village. Approached via a private drive to the rear, the property immediately impresses with its wealth of period charm and features. The reception room provides a particularly inviting space, featuring a soot-stained inglenook fireplace and exposed beams, creating a cosy atmosphere in which to relax on winter evenings. With the sun streaming in from the south, the room is also flooded with natural light throughout the day. A separate well-appointed kitchen provides excellent practicality, while upstairs is an incredibly generous double bedroom featuring wonderful wide exposed floorboards and deep storage cupboards, together with an equally spacious bathroom. A charming period cottage offering a rare combination of character, space and a fascinating history.

Further Description:
Believed to have been built over three centuries ago, Cardinals Cottage is a property that immediately captures the imagination. Steeped in history and possessing a wealth of period character, this wonderfully proportioned one-bedroom cottage offers the opportunity to own something rather special.
Approached via a private drive to the rear, the cottage reveals its character from the moment you step inside. The reception room is particularly evocative, with a soot-stained inglenook fireplace and exposed beams creating the sort of warm, atmospheric setting that feels made for cosy evenings at home. Yet this is not a dark period cottage; with the sun streaming in from the south, the room is filled with natural light throughout the day.
The separate kitchen is well appointed, while upstairs the surprisingly generous double bedroom provides an abundance of space, with beautiful wide exposed floorboards and deep storage cupboards. An equally generous bathroom completes the accommodation.
For those seeking a home with genuine character rather than something newly built and indistinguishable from the next, Cardinals Cottage offers a wonderful opportunity. It is a home where the passage of time is part of its appeal - a place to enjoy the simple pleasures of village life, surrounded by historic charm and with an atmosphere that is increasingly difficult to replicate.
