PROPERTY buyers have the chance to purchase a piece of Whittlesey’s history after a Grade-II listed town cottage was put on the market.

Parts of the building date back to the 17th century, with exposed beams and wooden flooring giving it a touch of class.

The cottage, in Finkle Lane, includes a lounge, dining room, kitchen and bathroom on the ground floor.

A gallaried bedroom, with rafters, exposed beams and wooden floor, lies on the first floor complete with a study or dressing area.

The garden is enclosed with a mix of lawn, block paved patio, shrub borders and a timber shed.

The lounge boasts an original inglenook fireplace while the dining room’s exposed brickwork typifies one of the town’s most historic buildings.

The one-bedroom cottage is on the market with Grays of Whittlesey. To view the property or for more information, contact Grays 0843 314 7051 or visit their Broad Street branch.
