A traditional two-bedroom semi-detached cottage in Garvald, offering character features and a generous rear garden across two levels. The living room showcases exposed beams, an exposed brick wall and a wood-burning stove; the first floor provides two double bedrooms with a large master and adjoining dressing room. A separate kitchen, dining room and conservatory provide flexible living space, while a workshop off the entrance adds useful storage or hobby space.
The property requires renovation throughout — the conservatory needs attention, interior and finishes are dated, and the EPC is F. Broadband speeds are very slow and the area is classed as very deprived, though mobile signal is excellent. Council tax is above average and parking is on-street only. These practical issues are reflected in the need for updating but also create opportunity for value uplift through refurbishment.
This cottage will suit a buyer seeking countryside character and scope to personalise: downsizers wanting a peaceful rural base, or buyers prepared to invest in upgrading. With its sizeable garden, workshop and period charm, the house is a practical canvas for someone who values privacy and traditional features and is ready to carry out works to improve energy efficiency and modern conveniences.
