4 bed detached house for sale

High Street, Codicote SG4

A charming detached village cottage with classic red brick elevations under a slate roof, with origins believed to date back around 300 years to the William & Mary / Queen Anne period. Beside the main entrance the front elevation is adorned with a commemorative plaque, referencing that the property is known locally at 'The Barracks' as it is thought to be the site used by soldiers recruited at the time of the rebellion in 1745. Originally three separate cottages, 'Endon Cottage' was thoughtfully combined into one spacious home, offering a unique and flexible layout filled with character. The property has been extensively renovated in our clients' ownership
