Believed to date back to the early 1800s, this charming Grade II Listed cottage occupies a picturesque position in the heart of the sought-after village of Great Easton, surrounded by an attractive collection of period homes. Offering a wonderful blend of character and practicality, the property is rich in original features including exposed beams throughout, oak internal doors and a unique split-level ground floor layout.

Inside, the cosy sitting room is centred around an attractive brick fireplace housing a new Charnwood log-burning stove (with hetas certificate), creating a warm and inviting focal point. A small flight of steps lead to the kitchen and bathroom, with the bathroom having been tastefully refurbished within recent years to provide modern convenience while complementing the property's period charm. The kitchen has an airing cupboard housing a Potterton Gold combi boiler.

The first floor offers two well-proportioned bedrooms, while outside the enclosed rear courtyard garden provides a private and low-maintenance space for relaxing or entertaining. Benefitting from no properties directly behind, the cottage enjoys an excellent degree of privacy to the rear, enhancing the peaceful feel of the outdoor space. Additional practical features include external water taps to both the front and rear of the property.

Located within this highly desirable Essex village, Great Easton benefits from a well-regarded primary school, traditional village pub and beautiful surrounding countryside.
