A compact two-bedroom stone cottage blending period character with contemporary fittings. Exposed beams, stonework and a feature fireplace with gas stove give the living room strong cottage charm, while an upgraded kitchen and double glazing provide modern convenience. The house is freehold and benefits from gas-fired central heating.
Accommodation is arranged over two main floors with a small mezzanine storage area off the main bedroom. The living room is unusually generous for the footprint, providing flexible living space; the kitchen is narrower but fitted with modern units, an oven and hob, plumbing for appliances and direct access to the low-maintenance paved garden.
Practical points to note: the property is modest in overall footprint (approx 709 sq ft) with a small plot and limited outside space designed for easy upkeep rather than extensive gardening. The cottage was constructed before 1900 and external stone walls are presumed to have no modern insulation; buyers seeking maximum thermal efficiency may want to budget for additional insulation works. The mezzanine has limited headroom and the second bedroom is compact, so the layout will suit a couple, first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor rather than a larger family.
Overall this cottage offers a ready-to-live-in mix of character and modern upgrades in a comfortable suburban setting. It presents an opportunity to add value through selective improvement (insulation, kitchen/bathroom upgrade) while enjoying a low-maintenance garden and excellent local amenities.
