Character cottage in Aldbrough with parking potential and low-maintenance garden.
Corner plot in central village location, near shop and pub
Aldbrough cottage with genuine period charm set on a corner plot close to village amenities. Exposed timber beams, a dual-aspect lounge-diner and a sunroom give the house a warm, lived-in character while triple glazing is marketed as fitted throughout to improve warmth and sound reduction.
The ground floor layout suits family life: a country-style kitchen with separate utility/boot room, handy downstairs WC and a private low‑maintenance courtyard with decking and artificial turf. Double gates already in place offer scope to convert part of the garden into off‑street parking, a valuable practical upgrade in the village.
There are practical considerations to note. The building dates from before 1900 and has assumed solid brick walls with no fitted insulation; buyers should budget for potential thermal improvements. Heating runs from a boiler using smokeless coal as the main fuel—an older system that may need review or replacement. Local records also reference earlier double glazing; the glazing description in the listing and older records conflict, so buyers should verify glazing and insulation details during inspection.
This home will suit families or downsizers who value village life and character, and buyers seeking an opportunity to improve energy efficiency and add parking. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, layout and renovation potential on offer.
