Summary

This is a well maintained and presented semi-detached Victorian farmhouse estate cottage in a Village location. Built in 1884 as a workers estate cottage on the Billington Manor / Arthur McNamara estate on the opposite side of the A4146 to the Billington Manor house in a designated conservation area. To the north boundary there is woodland, to the west (rear) open field grazing/garden and to the South is No 2 Manor Cottages then open ground / converted barn house. The property fronts onto the road with ample off road parking.

The property briefly comprises entrance porches outside and in, lounge, dining room, kitchen, garden room, study and downstairs cloak room. Upstairs there are 4 good sized bedrooms and family bathroom. There are very well established and very private gardens to the rear and side elevations with broken York stone front driveway with off road parking for up to 5 vehicles.

Rear and Side garden:
The property stands on the south facing side of Great Billington hill and is therefore well sheltered as a benefit of this, summer bedding and summer flowering shrubs continue to flower to November in mild winters. The garden is terraced which makes for great entertaining and relaxing areas. The lower level is a small patio area surrounded with flowering shrubs and trees behind so is very sheltered and private, Steps rising to mid level with brick raised borders planted with shrubs and herbaceous and a covered area in front of garden shed with built in gas Bbq, rising to Lawn area, surrounded with flowering shrubs & trees backed with conifer hedge makes this area again completely sheltered and totally private. Surprisingly with so much planting this garden requires very little maintenance apart from one pruning session in Autumn and seasonal trimming from time to time.
