A compact, characterful cottage in the heart of Willingham, offered at an accessible price and sold at auction. The mid-terrace, pre-1900 property combines period charm — a woodburner and American oak flooring — with a modern fitted kitchen and useful storage. Its location just off the village High Street puts shops, bus routes and the recreation ground within easy walking distance.
The layout suits a first-time buyer or couple seeking a low-maintenance starter home: a living room with woodburner, an open kitchen with integrated cooker and slimline dishwasher, one double bedroom plus a second small bedroom or study, and a first-floor shower room. A small enclosed front garden and timber shed provide outdoor space and storage; on-street parking is available nearby on George Street.
Buyers should note the property’s practical limitations: total internal space is around 41 sqm (approx. 441 sq ft), main heating is electric room heaters rather than central heating, and the EPC is rated D. The house is freehold but will be sold at auction, so purchasers should allow for that buying route. The solid brick walls have external insulation, and there is loft access for potential extra storage or conversion subject to checks.
For someone looking for an affordable entry into the village market, this cottage offers immediate habitation with scope to improve energy efficiency and heating. Its location and cottage character make it attractive for first-time buyers who prioritise proximity to amenities over extensive outdoor space.
