With historical links to Henry Fielding, Cradock House is a charming Grade II* listed property dating from 1594. It forms part of a group of listed buildings alongside three neighbouring homes. Retained original features include attractive brick elevations and stone mullion windows, together with original fireplaces, ornate plaster work and exposed timber beams.

The ground floor has a central entrance hall with a generous reception room to either side. These are the drawing room and the family room, both of which have grand fireplaces, fitted with log burners, while the drawing room also features beautiful, ornate ceiling plasterwork. There is also a dining area with double doors connecting to the kitchen. This is fitted with storage units to base and wall level, plus integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, a double oven and an induction hob with an extractor hood. A utility room to the side of the house offers further storage and space for appliances.

Five bedrooms are arranged across the first and second floors. These include two substantial double bedrooms on the first floor, one of which has an adjoining landing/study area, which leads to the first-floor bathroom. A bathroom and three additional bedrooms are found on the second floor, one of which is a walk-through, making it ideal for use as a study.

Outside

The house opens to the front onto a quiet, no through road. Parking is available in front of the house and in a garage to the rear. The house also qualifies for resident permit parking in marked bays. There is a south facing, walled courtyard garden to the rear of the house which is a real suntrap and bordered with mature shrubs, with a patio, gated access to Friary Lane and with some reorganisation, there is space for a dining table.
