Tucked away in the peaceful rural hamlet of Beazley End, Silver Springs is a beautifully presented Grade II Listed thatched cottage offering a rare combination of period character, stylish interiors, and expansive outdoor space. Occupying a generous plot of nearly three-quarters of an acre, the property boasts charming gardens, a variety of outbuildings, and ample parking, making it an ideal countryside retreat for families or those seeking a lifestyle move.

From the moment you arrive, the property captures the imagination - with its quintessential thatched roof, mint green exterior, and a delightful mix of traditional and modern finishes throughout. The home’s layout is generous and welcoming, with three principal reception rooms, each full of original features including exposed beams and timbers, yet enhanced with tasteful decoration and modern comforts.

At the heart of the home is a well-equipped kitchen with granite worktops, cream shaker-style units, and a lovely blend of rustic beams and contemporary lighting. This space flows naturally into the adjoining dining room with feature staircase, creating the perfect area for entertaining or family meals. A bright, dual-aspect sitting room and a snug/living room offer cosy relaxation zones, while a stylishly finished ground floor bathroom adds flexibility.

Upstairs, the property offers four well-proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite with built-in storage and leafy views. The additional bedrooms retain all the cottage’s character charm, with sloping ceilings, exposed beams, and cottage-style windows. A second family bathroom services the upper floor and is finished with neutral, modern tones.

Outside, Silver Springs really comes into its own. The plot is a haven of space and privacy, with mature planting, open lawned areas, and dedicated patios for outdoor living. There are several outbuildings including a games room with bar, a double garage, workshop and storage sheds - ideal for hobbies, working from home or further potential (STPP). A sweeping gravel driveway provides excellent parking and access, while the surrounding countryside offers a tranquil, secluded backdrop.
