Two-bedroom period home with character and cosy living spaces near local shops.
Two double bedrooms and one bathroom in around 708 sq ft
Madges Cottage is a charming two-bedroom end-terrace in the heart of Dolton, set within a terrace of three attractive historic cottages. Built before 1900 with cob walls, exposed beams and a thatched-style exterior, the house offers genuine period character and a cosy living room centred on a wood burner. The property is offered with vacant possession and suits someone seeking village life and traditional features.
Practical points are clear: the home is compact (approximately 708 sq ft) with low ceilings and relatively small rooms, and heating is via electric storage heaters. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, and the small garden offers low-maintenance outdoor space rather than extensive grounds. These factors make the cottage better suited to downsizers, second-home buyers or purchasers happy to accept traditional construction and modest modern comforts.
There is scope for sympathetic refurbishment to update services, improve insulation and modernise the kitchen or bathroom while retaining period detail. The village location is convenient for day-to-day needs, with a grocery shop, village hall and two pubs close by, and two well-regarded primary schools nearby. Overall, the house offers authentic rural character with clear renovation and comfort compromises to consider.
