This pretty mid‑19th‑century stone cottage combines authentic character with a newly refurbished interior, making it an attractive move‑in‑ready home for those looking to downsize without compromising on charm. The layout is practical: two double bedrooms, two generous reception rooms with feature fireplaces, and a modern kitchen extension finished in contemporary shaker‑style units.
Set in a quiet semi‑rural spot on Park Road, the property benefits from a sunny south‑facing rear garden, decent plot size and two off‑street parking spaces including an electric car charger. The location offers easy access to local shops, scenic walks and good transport links, while crime levels are very low and nearby schools have strong Ofsted outcomes.
The house has been recently redecorated and upgraded with new plastering, gas central heating and double glazing, so it feels fresh throughout. Practical buyers should note the single shower room serving two bedrooms and the EPC rating of E — the property is comfortable now but could benefit from energy‑efficiency improvements to lower running costs further.
Overall this detached stone cottage is well suited to downsizers or professionals seeking a characterful, low‑maintenance home in a semi‑rural yet well‑connected setting. It’s freehold, offers immediate occupancy and presents modest scope for further improvement to personalise and upgrade energy performance.
