This Victorian end-of-terrace cottage offers compact, characterful living with a notably large rear garden — rare for similar terraces. The house has original beams, period features and a practical fitted kitchen with a stable door onto the garden, giving a homely, village feel close to local amenities and good road links.
Practical upgrades are already in place: UPVC double glazing, mains gas central heating with a boiler replaced about eight years ago, and modern bathroom fittings. The freehold tenure and low council tax band add affordability for first-time buyers seeking an entry point to the market or a small family wanting outdoor space.
Buyers should note the property footprint is small (around 583 sq ft) and the walls appear to be original solid brick with no built-in insulation, so further energy-efficiency work may be desirable. Parking is on-street only and access to the garden is via a shared right of way through a neighbouring plot. The local area records higher crime levels, which may influence buyer choice.
Overall this home suits someone who values period character and a large private garden but accepts a compact internal layout and potential improvement costs. A survey is recommended to confirm condition and services before purchase.
