Set within a converted early-1800s brewery, this recently renovated two-bedroom home pairs period character with ready-to-live-in comfort. From the living room and one bedroom you can enjoy broad river and fell views — a rare feature in this market — while modern fixtures and a tanked cellar add practical value.
The layout is traditional and efficient: living room, kitchen-diner with utility/pantry, two double bedrooms and a contemporary shower room. The lower-ground cellar has been converted for gym/storage use. Off-street parking and a sheltered veranda extend the living space outdoors.
Important practical points are clear and factual: the property is leasehold with around 973 years remaining (peppercorn rent), it sits in a high flooding-risk zone, and the stone walls are original with no confirmed insulation. Council tax is very low, broadband and mobile signals are adequate, and the house is in a small-town setting close to local amenities and walking routes.
This home suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking low-maintenance, characterful accommodation with strong holiday-let or long-term rental potential. Buyers who need a flood-resilient property or who prioritise fully insulated walls should factor in additional mitigation or retrofit work.
