This double-fronted terrace offers a compact, characterful home ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a village lifestyle. Two reception rooms include a cosy living room with a log burner and a bright kitchen; the ground-floor shower room and separate study with French doors add practical flexibility for working from home.
Outside, the tiered rear garden feels larger than the plot suggests: patio seating, lawns, a vegetable patch, a dedicated hot-tub area and a rear shed provide private outdoor space for relaxing and pottering. Two double bedrooms upstairs include built-in storage and sit above roughly 710 sq ft of living space.
The house dates from before 1900 and has traditional sandstone/limestone walls; double glazing was installed after 2002 and the property has mains gas boiler heating and an EPC rating of C. Expect straightforward improvement work — insulation upgrades and some cosmetic updating could add comfort and value. Broadband speeds are slow locally, and the area is classified with high local deprivation, though crime is low and council tax is very cheap.
Sold freehold with no flood risk, this mid-terrace cottage suits buyers who value character, outdoor space and a quiet village setting. If you’re comfortable with modest room sizes and low-cost running bills, this property gives a rare combination of period charm, practical garden and clear potential at an accessible price point.
