This mid-terrace Victorian cottage is offered freehold and chain free, set in a peaceful hamlet with uncrowded countryside views. The house is arranged over three floors, offering flexible living space with a good-sized lounge, a large second reception room and a third-floor bedroom benefitting from elevated views.
The property suits a first-time buyer, couple or small family wanting character and scope to improve. The fitted kitchen and handy utility cupboard add everyday practicality, while the rear yard provides a private outdoor space. Council tax is very low and there is no flood risk in this location.
Material points to note: the building dates from before 1900 and the stone walls are assumed uninsulated; EPC is E. Heating runs from an LPG boiler and radiators (not mains gas), broadband speeds are slow, and there is a single bathroom serving three bedrooms. These factors present both running costs to consider and clear renovation potential to add value.
Overall this is a character property with immediate occupancy potential and sensible upside from sensible energy and cosmetic upgrades. It will appeal to buyers who prioritise location, views and affordable entry into a rural market, and to investors prepared to modernise heating, insulation and connectivity.
