This compact two-bedroom Victorian cottage on King Street offers characterful living in a central Cottingham location. The property’s farmhouse-style kitchen, exposed beams and a lounge with a log burner create immediate atmosphere, while a private rear garden provides a small outdoor retreat. The home is freehold with a low council tax band, making it economical to run.
The accommodation is modest (approximately 593 sq.ft.) with small-to-average room sizes over two floors; it will suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a cosy, low-maintenance period home. Built in the early 20th century of solid brick, the house retains period features but also shows areas for improvement.
Practical considerations: the walls are assumed to be solid brick with no cavity insulation, and the double glazing was fitted before 2002. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators (not tested). These factors mean there is realistic potential—and likely cost—to upgrade thermal performance and modernise fittings if required.
Location is a clear strength: Cottingham village centre amenities, shops, pubs and well-rated local schools are within easy walking distance. There is on-street parking and a gravelled parking area beside the property. Note the immediate neighbourhood is classified as ageing urban communities with above-average local crime statistics, which may influence buyers prioritising security or quiet streets.
