3 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Eye
Delightfully situated Grade II Listed period property on the edge of Eye, set well back from the road within a plot of approximately 0.42 Ac. The three bedroom with bathroom first floor complements the two reception room ground floor which includes shower room, two hallways and Aga kitchen with pantry. There is also scope to improve and upgrade.
Oak Cottage is a detached Grade II Listed cottage believed to be of early 18th Century origins when laid out as two separate dwellings. Thought to have been altered to a single property some fifty or sixty years ago, the alterations created three first floor bedrooms with bathroom along with two principal ground floor rooms, two hallways along with an Aga kitchen to the rear. The ground floor also includes a shower room. All in all the accommodation makes for a most appealing home and in what I consider to be a lovely spot having known the area since the early 1970's. An Aga provides some hot water along with a radiator whereas a standalone Camray II oil fired boiler is the principal means of heat to domestic hot water and radiators throughout. The exterior is notable for the interesting ridge chimney stack with two detached square flues set between a pair of classic cottage dormer windows. Ground floor windows at the front are of a bespoke oak design with slimline double glazed units within with upstairs, traditional cottage casements. Across the rear and left hand side the ground floor was enlarged by way of flat roof extensions and these along with the proximity of the garage block beyond create thoughts of remodelling and extending, subject to Planning Permission being obtained. Whilst the current owners failed to obtain Planning Permission for their own such scheme, we understand from them the Heritage Officers were not averse to alterations in principle. The cottage would now benefit from a programme of repairs which has dictated the reduction in price to the current level.
