Originally an 18th century barn that was converted to become two cottages – Lancot and Rose Cottage - in the early 20th century and then one single dwelling about 60 years later is a beautifully maintained three-bedroom detached home brimming with charm and character. Surrounded by mature gardens and backing onto open fields, it offers a tranquil countryside setting with spacious accommodation and ample off-road parking—perfect for those seeking a quiet lifestyle without compromising on nearby amenities.

Step Inside

There is a welcoming kitchen complete with a butler’s sink, granite countertops, exposed beams, and a central island with built-in hob—ideal for both family life and entertaining. This light-filled space links to a generous dining area with character stonework and wooden flooring.

The cosy living room spans the full width of the original Lancot cottage and features a central fireplace housing a multi-fuel burner, beamed ceilings, and direct access to the private front garden.

Upstairs, the landing leads to three spacious bedrooms, each showcasing exposed stonework, timber beams, and scenic views of the gardens and countryside beyond. Last year a conservatory with a fitted kitchenette provides a versatile space for enjoying the upper garden year-round or hosting guests. At the same time that the conservatory was installed the roof timbers were upgraded and new slates and insulation installed. A modern family shower room, along with an additional shower room and storage cupboard adds flexibility for family living and visitors.

Step Outside

The gardens are a standout feature of Rose Cottage, thoughtfully landscaped to wrap around the home. They include stone-chipped pathways, raised flowerbeds, mature planting, and vibrant borders. At the front, a gated entrance opens to a gravelled parking area with space for around three vehicles, along with useful timber storage sheds. To the rear, a winding path leads through peaceful garden spaces—perfect for relaxing and enjoying the unspoiled rural outlook. There is also a bore hole that is over a hundred years old that provided the original water supply to the houses but is now a useful water source to use in the gardens.
