Riverside Cottage is a traditional 3-bedroom end-terrace stone cottage with genuine period character and a pleasant side garden. Set in Sladesbridge, just over a mile from Wadebridge, it offers village-rural living with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical for modern family life while retaining rustic charm.
The house requires improvement and redecoration throughout: the EPC is G, some wiring is older-style, and the external stone walls lack modern insulation. Heating is by electric storage heaters with an oil-fired Rayburn in the kitchen; the property will suit buyers prepared to invest in energy upgrades and some refurbishment to unlock its full potential.
Accommodation includes a large lounge/dining room with an open fire and exposed beams, a conservatory off the kitchen that brings extra light, and three bedrooms. The rear wing contains a bathroom and a small third bedroom; there is also a noted flying freehold over part of the front room. The plot is small but includes a useful patio, shed and hardstanding with oil tank.
This cottage will appeal to families or buyers seeking a characterful home near Wadebridge who are willing to modernise for improved comfort and energy efficiency. Priced to reflect condition, it gives scope for incremental renovation rather than a full rebuild, and its location and size make it a practical long-term home or a sympathetic refurbishment project.
