Virginia Cottage is a charming and characterful home set in the heart of Kelvedon High Street, offering a wonderful blend of period charm and practical living.

From the moment you step inside, the cottage feels warm and inviting. The ground floor flows beautifully, with a generous sitting room providing a cosy yet spacious setting, perfect for relaxing evenings or entertaining friends.

Upstairs, the cottage continues to impress with two well-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly spacious, while the second bedroom offers flexibility for guests, a home office, or growing families. A family bathroom completes the first floor, along with access to a delightful balcony off of bedroom two which is an unexpected feature that provides a private spot to enjoy a morning coffee or unwind in the evening.

Adding further versatility, the property benefits from a cellar, perfect for storage, hobbies, or even future potential, and an external garden store.
