Dating from 1873, 1 Tag Lane Cottages is a charming period semi-detached home, originally forming part of the historic Cheswardine Estate.

The property offers an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to create a home to their own taste. While some modernisation and potential reconfiguration may be desired, a number of important improvements have already been undertaken, including a replacement roof in 2019, new double-glazed windows and doors in 2020, and a new boiler in 2023.

The accommodation currently includes a galley-style kitchen with breakfast bar, a generous sitting room with a bay window and open fireplace, and a modern ground-floor bathroom. Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms.

A covered area to the rear connects the house with a useful brick outbuilding, providing utility and storage space. Beyond are two additional stores, one of which incorporates an original bread oven. Together, these buildings offer considerable scope for future adaptation, whether as an extension to the existing accommodation, a home office or a workspace, subject to any necessary consents.

The property is approached over a driveway providing off-road parking, but it is the gardens that truly set this cottage apart. Extending in all to approximately 0.22 acre, they offer a wonderful sense of space, privacy and seclusion. Sweeping lawns are complemented by an attractive variety of mature trees, established shrubs and fruit trees, creating an established and particularly enjoyable outdoor environment.

Whether used for entertaining, family life, productive gardening or simply relaxing and taking in the peaceful surroundings and countryside views, the gardens provide a fantastic setting and offer far more than might ordinarily be expected from a property of this type.

Offering character, potential and an exceptional amount of outside space, 1 Tag Lane Cottages presents an increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy country living in a peaceful setting, while remaining within easy reach of everyday amenities and excellent transport links.
