SITUATION The Village of Aberthin includes a combination of stone-built Cottages and houses together with more modern properties and is surrounded by farmland and the adjoining Stalling Down Common which allows pleasant walks. The Village also includes two public houses and a Village Hall. The nearby Market Town of Cowbridge has a range of shops and services to suit all needs. There are well regarded local Primary and Secondary Schools in addition to a public library, health centre and Old Hall Community Centre. Recreation facilities include a leisure centre and various sporting clubs, which offer tennis, squash, cricket, rugby, football and bowls. Cowbridge lies some 13 miles west of Cardiff which has the usual amenities of a Capital City including a main-line rail connection to London in around two hours. The area is serviced by the A48 which by- passes the Town along the route from Cardiff to Bridgend and Swansea. The M4 Motorway lies some 7 miles to the north of the Town with Junctions 33, 34 and 35 servicing "The Vale". The Heritage Coast, with its cliff top walks and mixture of sandy and stony beaches, lies to the south and west.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY Church Cottage is a sizeable property located within yard of the centre of the village of Aberthin in an elevated location enjoying views over the village and the Upper Thaw Valley. Thought to be 800 years old, the accommodation currently includes two reception rooms to the ground floor, the principal lounge including a deep inglenook-style fireplace with a solid wood over mantle beam. The second reception room has , in the past, been used as an additional bedroom. A connecting door from the principal reception room leads to the kitchen dining room for the property, this being a generous space off which is a rear entrance lobby and a bathroom. To the first floor are two bedrooms, one with a dormer window looking to the front elevation, the second looking to the rear.
