A compact, freshly renovated mid-terrace cottage tucked into Crooke’s semi-rural canal-side setting. All internal finishes are new — floors, windows, heating and bathroom — so the property is ready to move into or let immediately. The interior footprint is modest at 592 sq ft, arranged over two storeys with a front lounge, rear kitchen and two bedrooms upstairs.
The rear garden is private and benefits from pleasant countryside views; the property also enjoys a riverside aspect to one side and nearby communal green space. On-street parking serves the row, and the village offers a pub, marina, nursery and regular bus services. Council tax is very cheap and local schools nearby have good Ofsted ratings.
Notable practical points: broadband speeds are very slow in this location and the property sits in a medium flood-risk area, which may affect insurance and connectivity choices. The neighbourhood is described as deprived in wider area statistics, though crime levels are reported as very low. The plot is relatively large for a terrace, but internal living space is small, so this best suits a small household, first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking a renovated rural-aspect cottage.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the finish and outlook; the home offers an attractive, low-maintenance package with clear limitations in size, connectivity and flood exposure that buyers should factor into plans.
