Latcham Dowling are delighted to offer for sale this beautiful Grade 2 listed “Picture postcard” cottage, believed to date back over 300 years and once was owned by the local Tailor. As well as having a wealth of character, a real benefit of this period property is the fact it is so close to the town but yet affords two off road parking spaces and has a wonderful L Shaped garden.
Step inside and as you would imagine the property is steeped in character features, brick flooring, wood flooring, beams and open fireplaces in abundance. There are two good size reception rooms both measuring 14′ plus as well as a 11′ vaulted ceiling kitchen. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms as well as a recently re-fitted white bathroom suite. Step outside and there is a good West facing L shaped garden which has two brick built storage sheds and a gate to the rear that gives access to one of the parking spaces. The other parking space is to the front of the property. The “Cottage” has been sympathetically looked after by the current owners and had the Thatch re-ridged circa four years ago, but know its time to pass this piece of history on to new owners.
Potton is a thriving market town with many amenities, two schools, several pre-schools, doctors’ surgery, family butchers, traditional hardware store, eateries, newsagents, vets and so much more. Sandy and Biggleswade stations are within a 3 and 4 mile drive respectively and offer fast mainline services to London St Pancras and Kings Cross.
