Connells are delighted to bring to market, this elegant three-bedroom detached character cottage which offers a unique blend of period charm and modern convenience, set within the sought-after village of Houghton Conquest and offered to the market chain free.
Beautifully presented throughout, the property boasts a versatile and spacious ground floor. At its heart are two distinct reception rooms, each offering its own unique appeal. The characterful lounge is rich in charm and period features, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, while the second, more contemporary reception room provides a bright and stylish living space with direct access to the side garden, ideal for both everyday family life and entertaining guests. The remainder of the ground floor comprises a modern, fully fitted kitchen with access to the rear garden, a contemporary utility area offering additional practicality, and a well-appointed family bathroom. The first floor continues to impress with three generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom serves as a luxurious retreat, benefitting from a walk-in wardrobe and a private en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms are also well-proportioned, making the property perfectly suited to families, professionals, or those seeking additional guest accommodation.
Externally, the property enjoys low-maintenance side and rear gardens, providing attractive outdoor spaces for relaxing and entertaining with minimal upkeep required.
