Little Kent End is a Cotswolds village property thought to date back to the 1800s tucked away in Ashton Keynes, a village in the heart of the Cotswolds water park which features in the Domesday Book.
Although updated by subsequent owners, the house boasts plenty of remaining period detail including wooden beams and a pretty fireplace with a multifuel wood burner. There is also the opportunity to extend the house, subject to planning permissions.
Internally the house has a sitting room/dining room with a bright conservatory and a kitchen overlooking the west-facing back garden.
