A rare opportunity to acquire a slice of history, this attractive Grade II listed thatched cottage dates back to 1730 with the rare outbuilding believed to date back further to around 1430. The house itself was formerly two cottages which were acquired separately by the present owner and prior to that many years ago it was known as William the Fourth public house. The property is ideally located in the heart of Queniborough village centre and offers large and well arranged family accommodation boasting a range of character features to include original exposed wall and ceiling beams, numerous open fireplaces, sliding sash windows and panelled and latched doors. The accommodation comprises entrance hall, kitchen, utility, pantry, WC and four reception rooms, three of which have fireplaces. The first floor landing is approached via two staircases where there are four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a central wet room. Externally the property has an extensive gravelled driveway and a fabulous large two storey outbuilding with two garages and large store on the ground floor and a fabulous first floor room spanning nearly 8m in length with vaulted ceiling which lends itself to a multitude of potential uses and more recently was used as a home office and games room. There is an attractive colourful garden with large lawn beyond the driveway. Rarely does a property of this nature present itself on the open market and we would therefore recommend an early viewing to avoid missing out.
