Stone cottage on sale for first time in 200 YEARS looks normal from outside – but hides a bone-chilling secret inside

A CREEPY COTTAGE has gone up for sale for the first time in two centuries – but there’s a skin-crawling catch.

The three-bedroom detached seventeenth century home in Kidderminster is up for grabs for £825,000 – but Reddit users have urged buyers to avoid the gaff like the plague after an abandoned monkey was spotted in one of the bedrooms.

But the spooky three-bedroom property’s new owner will have to draft in an expert to install a fresh electronic grid.

However, the lucky buyer will benefit from a home neatly perched on 17 acres of land and boasting a stunning woodland and two natural springs.

The home, which was advertised on Reddit, attracted a flock of users who hypothesized a handful of blood-curdling events.

“That place must be utterly terrifying at night,” one user said.

The home’s listing said: “Tucked away within the depths of the Wyre Forest, an opportunity to purchase this stone cottage, the original dwelling dating to circa 1675 with more recent addition.”

“Tucked away at the far end of Sugars Lane the property has been maintained over the years, however, now offering a full refurbishment opportunity.

“The Ford nestles within 17 acres of oak woodland having two natural water springs, grazing land, top field, lower field, amenity land and a barn.

“The mix of land ratio is approximately eight acres of field and pasture and nine acres of oak woodland.

“Properties such as this rarely become available and, as such, an early inspection is recommended.”

PARANORMAL ACTIVITY

It comes after reality TV star Chloe Ferry revealed she wants to sell her £1 million mansion after the ‘ghost of the Geordie Ripper’ left her terrified.

The 28-year-old moved into her dream home back in 2021 – but has recently felt a bit uneasy in the property by herself.

The reality star has felt so scared in the past that she’s ended up staying at her mum’s house – and has even thought about putting the pad up for sale.

Chloe confessed: “It’s my dream home and I don’t feel safe in it.

“It’s just so scary.

“Half the time I’ll literally stay at my mum’s house.

“I’m that terrified I’m honestly thinking about selling my house.”
