A unique opportunity to acquire Crofters Cottage, a distinctive grade II listed detached stone-built two bedroom property occupying a prominent position on Burton Latimer High Street.

Believed to date back several centuries, the cottage extends to approximately 1,012 sq ft and retains a wealth of original character, including exposed beamed ceilings, stone fireplaces and leaded-light style windows. The accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes two well-proportioned bedrooms, living accommodation and a modern bathroom with both bath and shower. Externally, the property benefits from a walled rear courtyard and useful outbuildings, while everyday amenities, including Sainsbury’s, are within immediate reach. The property is likely to appeal to buy-to-let investors, serviced accommodation operators and owner-occupiers alike. Estimated rental income is approximately £1,000 pcm / £12,000 per annum, equating to a gross yield of around 8%, subject to purchase price and occupancy.
