INTRODUCTION On the fringes of a popular village, this period cottage is steeped in history and is an ideal lock and leave second property or low maintenance home. Updating works have been carried out in recent years with a modern country style kitchen and the addition of a utility room and WC on the ground floor is a real bonus. The two double bedrooms both face the front and there is a large bathroom. The pretty kitchen has space for a dining room and the lounge a cosy gas woodburner. Although having limited outside space, there are country walks on the doorstep and the property is well positioned for the shop, church and M6. Off road parking is also available
