A beautiful Grade II listed, three bedroom, stone detached cottage, dating back to 1750, set within the conservation green area of Whittingham, with a number of works carried out and consents approved in the last 2 years. A lovely private cottage garden is situated to the rear, with a west facing aspect, and there is a driveway with parking for two cars and a good sized detached garage.
The Old Butchers Shop provides a special opportunity for a lovely family home in Whittingham overlooking the green, offering flexible living space over two floors. Since taking ownership, the current owners have carried out a number of works to include an internal wall removed between the dining room and galley kitchen, creating a much larger open plan living/dining space, added two large Velux windows, new electric circuit board, new cast iron wood burning stove to the living room, and a new timber shed to the garden.
Note – there has also been Listed building consent granted for the existing windows to be replaced with double glazed timber windows.
