This detached three-bedroom stone cottage blends original character with recent tasteful updating. Set back from the High Street, it offers surprising privacy while keeping shops, pubs and amenities within an easy walk — ideal for someone who wants central convenience without through-traffic.
Internally the layout feels generous for its footprint: a large open-plan living/dining room with a traditional stone fireplace, a modern kitchen opening onto the south-facing garden, and three well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs. Recent renovations mean buyers can move in with minimal immediate works.
Practical points to note: the cottage is heated by electric storage heaters and the original stone walls are likely uninsulated, which can affect running costs despite the recently improved interior. There is one family bathroom. The area records higher crime levels than average, so buyers should consider security measures. Freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal add to everyday convenience.
