EPC: D The Old Forge Works is a period property, likely dating back to the 19th Century, formerly a forge and for a stint used as a photographic development plant before being converted into a house in the late 90s/early 00s.

It is attached at one end to Forge House, which is Grade II listed, and off the corner where it meets Forge House to a later 20th Century addition, which is also now a separate house.

Old Forge Works is specifically quoted as “not included in the listing”. The rear of the building is much in keeping with The Forge, being half-tile hung with a catslide roof to the rear.

The front projecting section is brick on the ground floor and timber framed and clad on the first floor.

The front door is on the side of the house, accessed down a pathway owned by this property but also sharing pedestrian access to four cottages to the rear and two cottages to the side.

The property is believed to own a slither of land in front of the house, which the vendor has kept pot plants on but other than this and the pathway to the side, which has space for storing rubbish bins, there is no garden with this property.

There are countryside walks and a recreation ground nearby though.

The accommodation provides generous living spaces and two large bedrooms, but could be reconfigured/adapted to suit buyer requirements.

Special features of the property include: - Flagstone flooring throughout the two main living spaces; - Drop-latch wooden internal doors; - Some exposed beams; - Faux fireplaces in the sitting room and one of the bedrooms; - Vaulted ceilings on the first floor and rooms along the back of the ground floor, with roof lights; - French doors with Juliet balcony to the front.
