Charming 2–3 Bedroom Grade II Listed Thatched Cottage with Countryside Views | Brooktrout Cottage, 19 Brookside, Lillingstone Lovell

Brooktrout Cottage is a truly enchanting Grade II Listed 18th century stone-built thatched cottage, beautifully positioned at the end of a quiet single track lane with no passing traffic. With a picturesque brook running alongside and stunning views across open countryside towards the historic 13th century church, this is a home that perfectly captures idyllic village living.

Rich in character and history, the original part of the cottage is listed, while a later rear extension provides additional practical living space, blending charm with functionality.

From the outset, the property offers exceptional kerb appeal, with traditional stone elevations, a thatched roof and a lovely frontage with driveway parking.

Internally, the accommodation is both flexible and full of personality. The living room is a standout feature of the home, with exposed stonework, original beams and a striking inglenook fireplace with bread oven, creating a warm and inviting space.

The kitchen diner forms the heart of the home, offering a sociable layout with beautiful cabinetry, tiled flooring and splashbacks. It is well-equipped with a double Belfast sink, eye-level double oven and separate halogen hob, combining traditional style with modern practicality.

Leading from the kitchen is a useful utility room, accessed via a charming stable door. This provides additional space for appliances and storage, keeping the main kitchen area uncluttered and highly functional.

An additional reception room with French doors opening onto the rear garden offers excellent versatility and is currently used as a further living space but could equally serve as a ground floor bedroom, home office or playroom, benefitting from added privacy.

The ground floor bathroom is well-appointed and features both a separate bath and shower, adding to the flexibility of the layout.

Upstairs, the cottage continues to impress with two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a spacious master bedroom with original beams. The second bedroom also has its own access via a charming spiral staircase, adding to the unique character of the home.

The first floor bathroom is a real highlight, featuring a freestanding bath positioned to enjoy far-reaching countryside views – a truly special space to relax and unwind.

Externally, the property enjoys a generous and private rear garden, ideal for both entertaining and peaceful enjoyment of the surroundings. A standout feature is the fully carpeted summerhouse, complete with power and heating, currently used as a home office and also perfectly suited to a consultation space or studio. The garden further benefits from two additional sheds, providing ample storage.

Further features include handmade front windows in keeping with the listed status, double glazing to the ground floor and an original front door, all contributing to the charm and authenticity of this beautiful home.
