This charming mid-terrace Victorian cottage combines period character with practical modern touches. The living room centres on a fireplace with an inset wood-burning stove, while the bright kitchen/dining room opens to a fully enclosed rear garden — ideal for low-maintenance outdoor space and light-filled meals.
The house offers two double bedrooms and a spacious landing that suits a small home office or reading nook. The bathroom has been modernised and includes a separate shower plus a roll-top bath. Broadband is excellent (FTTP) and the property is offered chain free, ready for a swift move.
Notable legal and maintenance points are stated clearly: the roof/attic includes a flying freehold accessible only via the neighbouring property, although an indemnity policy is in place for this. The walls are original solid brick and assumed to be uninsulated, so loft and wall insulation or heating improvements could be sensible for energy efficiency. Parking is on-street only.
This cottage suits buyers seeking a characterful, manageable home in a very affluent, low-crime town setting — particularly downsizers or first-time buyers who value period charm and a ready-to-live-in property but who are comfortable with modest fabric upgrades and the flying freehold arrangement.
