Strong investment/holiday-let potential in popular village location
Set just off Main Road in the picturesque village of Gainford, this two-bedroom mid-terrace offers a project with strong short‑let or resale potential. Original features such as sash windows and period fireplaces give the house character and a clear period appeal that will reward sympathetic renovation.
The layout includes a spacious front reception room, kitchen‑diner, downstairs cloakroom, two first‑floor bedrooms and a bathroom. The property is freehold, comes with an allocated off‑street parking bay and is offered with no onward chain, making it straightforward to purchase and renovate.
Important practical points: the house currently requires modernization throughout, has an EPC rating of G and some electric storage heaters in place. Walls are traditional stone without assumed insulation, and the property has limited external amenity space. These factors mean buyers should budget for energy improvements and general refurbishment works.
For investors or buyers seeking a village bolt‑hole, the location suits short‑term holiday lets or a rental income strategy, while families seeking a characterful home can modernise to personal taste. With good mobile and broadband coverage, low local crime and nearby amenities, the cottage sits well for either a hands‑on renovation or a managed investment.
