This listed cottage has “immense” character and dates back to the early 1500s. 

Albion Cottage, in Wrecclesham, is Grade II listed and more than five centuries old, and received a design award for restoration in the late 1990s. 

The property retains plenty of period features, including exposed beams, brickwork and wood flooring. 

On the ground floor, the living room includes a large inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove, while further through there is a secondary reception room which is described as “perfect” for entertaining. 

The kitchen and breakfast room has a vaulted ceiling with skylights, bespoke wooden doors and integrated appliances. 

Also on this level, there is a downstairs cloakroom, full height hallway windows and a stripped wooden staircase. 

Upstairs, there is a master bedroom with a walk-in storage cupboard, a second bedroom, and a bathroom. 

Outside there is a paved patio arena, leading to a landscaped walled garden with a lawn and apple trees. 

There is also a garden shed and a private parking space.

The property is being sold by estate agent Bourne Estate Agents for a guide price of £595,000.

Adrian Cannon of Bourne commented: “Bourne are delighted to have the unique opportunity to market this simply stunning double fronted Grade II listed cottage of immense character. 

“Having received a 'Highly Commended' Design Award for restoration in 1999 from Waverley Borough Council, the cottage has been the subject of a complete restoration, retaining a wealth of historical features. 

“Albion Cottage dates back to the early 16th century and is situated within Wrecclesham village.

“We highly recommend an internal viewing and see part of the village of Wrecclesham’s history.”
