Read the full agent description

Nestled in the very heart of the village, Leat Cottage is an attractive and spacious four-bedroom semi-detached home, offering a wonderful blend of character features and practical living space.

The welcoming entrance hall opens into a versatile reception room, currently used as a drawing room, complete with inbuilt shelving and a feature fireplace – an ideal spot for relaxing with a book or entertaining guests.

A beautifully light and spacious dual-aspect living and sitting room enjoys delightful views over the Westerly-facing garden. Cleverly divided by a striking, double-sided stone fireplace, this room offers both comfort and style. Opposite lies the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a range of units and cabinetry, and providing space for both integrated and free-standing appliances – all while overlooking the charming enclosed rear garden.

Upstairs, the landing is filled with natural light and gives access to four bedrooms – three generous doubles and a well-proportioned single. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, offering a touch of privacy and convenience.

One of the home’s standout features is its expansive Westerly-facing garden – significantly extended in recent years with the purchase of an adjoining parcel of land. Now offering a large, enclosed outdoor space complete with a variety of useful outbuildings, it presents exciting potential for a range of uses (subject to any necessary consents). A single garage is also included.

Leat Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a charming village home with generous gardens, character features, and flexible accommodation – ideal for families, professionals, or those seeking a peaceful lifestyle in a well-connected location.
