The town also has a community run library, highly rated primary school and dentist as well as other businesses.

The cottage dates to the 1850s, at one time forming part of the adjoining cottage and has been a loved and enjoyed home of our sellers for the last fifteen years. During this time it has been very well maintained and improved. The cottage benefits from gas fired central heating, bathroom on the first floor and a shower room on the ground floor, which covers all bases plus many character features. These include exposed ceiling beams, paned glass cottage windows with deep sills and a wonderful inglenook fireplace - great for those chilly evenings and brings a warmth and cosiness to the cottage. There is also a unique garden room that adds a touch of whimsy to the property and outside there is a magical and enchanting garden that is full of surprises. The garden provides the perfect spot for relaxing or entertaining guests with many hideaway seating areas giving excellent privacy.

This charming Victorian gem is a little piece of history waiting to be cherished by its new owners. Don't miss the opportunity to own this quintessential English cottage with its unique features and enchanting garden - it truly is a little jewel waiting to be discovered.
