A characterful two-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage in Wickham Market, offered chain free and packed with original detail. Exposed beams, brick fireplaces and a vaulted master bedroom give the house strong period appeal and a cosy, lived-in atmosphere. Practical upgrades include solar panels and recent internal re-plastering; heating is supported by an air source heat pump with radiator heating plus electric underfloor in parts, helping manage running costs.
The house sits on a small plot with a good-sized paved rear garden, brick storage and a timber outbuilding that could serve as a home office or hobby space. There is a solid fuel burner in the sitting room for extra warmth and character. Council tax is described as inexpensive and the property has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working.
Notable points to inspect: the property is timber-framed with assumed lack of built-in insulation in the original walls, and there is a right of access for the neighbouring property across the garden. The cottage’s layout and period features suit buyers wanting charm and character rather than a modern, open-plan home. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the space, light and decorative condition in person.
