Damson Cottage, in the conservation area of Lingen, dates from around 1750 and still has its original cast-iron glazed windows.

Arched at the front, they do, however, also come with modern, but sympathetically installed, secondary glazing.

Other particular features of this three-bedroomed home include extensive timbering and many original latch doors.

Immediately adjoining is a single-storey workshop and former garage and the building is set in large gardens which boast fruit trees, a greenhouse and a vegetable area, all of which are very private.

The fitted kitchen includes a pine plate rack and a Rayburn and has an opening to a dining room.

Two latch doors lead to a utility room, with the original meat hooks, and a cloakroom.

The dining room has a central ceiling beam, an original arched window and a recessed multi fuel burner and there is also a sitting room.

Exposed timbering can be found on the landing, which also has a useful study/office area facing the front of the cottage. In the master bedroom is a Victorian-style cast-iron fireplace while the guest bedroom has an en suite shower room. The third bedroom is also on this floor along with a family bathroom.

Outside is a double detached garage with a pitched roof providing a boarded storage area as well as a workshop/store and the former garage/store.

The gardens are seen as a very special feature of Damson Cottage and contain many mature trees and shrubs along with a decked seating area, positioned to take in the afternoon sun, a large vegetable garden with trellising separating it from the main garden and a useful greenhouse.
