This neatly presented two-bedroom terraced cottage blends period character with practical modern upgrades. The open-plan lounge centres on a wood burner, and the recently fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances for easy day-to-day living. Solar panels reduce running costs while the property remains fully electric.
Accommodation is compact: a double bedroom and a smaller second room suit a single occupant, home office or occasional guest. The wet room is modern and benefits from underfloor heating, but overall floor space is limited (approximately 424 sq ft) and room sizes are modest.
Externally the enclosed rear courtyard is low maintenance and private, ideal for a small table and plants rather than extensive gardening. The house is mid-terrace, constructed before 1900 and described as having system-built walls with assumed no insulation, so buyers should consider an energy-improvement survey if planning long-term ownership.
Suited to first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a low-upkeep home in a quiet small-town setting, this freehold cottage offers a mix of character and economical features. Note that heating is electric and some fabric improvements (wall insulation, glazing upgrades) may be needed to maximise comfort and efficiency.
