Angus Cottage is a charming Grade II listed town house in the heart of the village. Recorded as dating back to 17th and 18th century; there is an incised inscription on the brickwork ‘E.P. 1780’ which may indicate when the façade was built. Throughout the house there are exposed beams, timbers and brickwork and open fireplace. The house is entered from the High Street through a portico and vestibule into the drawing room which extends the entire width of the house. This leads to the dining room with further exposed timbers and access down to the cellar. The kitchen/breakfast room has a range of wood fronted cabinets and leads through to the rear lobby/utility room. From the utility room there are side doors to both the garden and the access leading to the potential parking spaces. A staircase to the first floor leads off the rear of the drawing room. At the top is an unusually spacious landing and it is likely that at some time this was divided from the stairwell as a further bedroom. The principal striking bedroom features exposed timbers with a vaulted ceiling and French windows opening to a Juliet balcony. There are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom. Overall, Angus Cottage provides well-proportioned elegant accommodation with many period features.

Outside

The south facing garden is accessed from both the side doors opening to a brick based courtyard. Steps lead up to the lawn flanked by mature shrubs. Further down the garden the lawn opens out to a sitting area also bounded by shrubs. It is enclosed by timber fencing, period wall and the flank wall of the neighbouring property. There is a rental option for leased parking spaces, adjacent to the property.
