Characterful two-bed cottage, chain-free and keenly priced in Holmbridge village..
Chain-free two-bedroom period cottage
A stone-built semi-detached cottage in the heart of Holmbridge, offered chain-free and keenly priced. The house retains period character with mullion windows, exposed beams and original stonework, giving an immediate sense of historic charm. Gas central heating and double glazing provide practical comfort, while a cellar and external store add useful storage.
Internally the layout is traditional and straightforward: lounge, dining kitchen, cellar, two bedrooms and a bathroom across two small storeys. Rooms are cosy with lower ceilings and modest proportions, suiting first-time buyers, those downsizing or buy-to-let investors seeking a compact village home with character. The small front garden is low-maintenance and the plot is very compact.
Buyers should note the property’s age and traditional construction: walls are sandstone/limestone with no known insulation, and some fittings (kitchen/stove) are dated and may need updating. Energy rating D (57) reflects this. Despite these points, the freehold tenure, low council tax band A and excellent local amenities and schools make this a practical, affordable purchase.
An internal inspection is recommended to appreciate the cottage’s character, check room sizes and identify any renovation or insulation works you may want to undertake to improve comfort and running costs.
