Freehold one-bedroom cottage, 521 sq ft
This charming one-bedroom cottage sits in the heart of Cheam Village, a short walk from shops, cafés and Cheam station. The ground-floor reception room has exposed beams, a brick fireplace and a wood-burning stove that creates a cosy living space. A kitchen at the rear opens onto a small courtyard garden — low-maintenance outdoor space in a very central spot.
Upstairs provides a double bedroom with fitted storage, a modern shower room and a compact study area, useful for home working. The house totals 521 sq ft and is offered freehold, making it a straightforward option for a first-time buyer or downsizer seeking character close to green spaces like Cheam and Nonsuch Parks.
There are some practical drawbacks to note. The property is a timber-frame building constructed before 1900 and is assumed to have no built-in insulation; ceilings are low throughout which limits head height in parts. The EPC rating is D. Parking is on-street only and the courtyard is very small. These factors may mean energy and improvement works are required.
Overall this cottage combines period character, a village location and good transport links with realistic renovation potential. It will suit a buyer who values proximity to amenities and outdoor space over large rooms, and who is comfortable planning modest upgrades to improve thermal performance and head height where possible.
