2 bed terraced house for sale

High Street, Cookham SL6

Badgers Cottage forms part of an attractive terrace of cottages believed to have been built between the 16th and 18th centuries, and later extended and improved. The home has a characterful, whitewashed frontage with exposed timbers, with the original features continuing inside including exposed beams and open fireplaces. While some areas of the house have been modernised, including the kitchen, there is scope to personalise further.

At the rear of the house there is a spacious and well equipped kitchen lit from above by a roof lantern. A lobby area opens to a family bathroom and the rear garden.
