Set back in a peaceful village, 7 Gatebeck Cottages is a characterful four-bedroom semi-detached cottage that blends original features with practical, modern updates. The living room's exposed beams and stone hearth create a warm family hub that flows into a fitted kitchen/dining area with patio doors to a private rear garden — a useful outdoor space for children and summer meals. Ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit home working or streaming.
Practicality is strong: a utility area and half-integral garage provide laundry and storage, while the ground-floor bedroom offers flexibility as a guest room or home office. The family bathroom is a contemporary four-piece suite. Three first-floor bedrooms include two good doubles and a smaller third room, with built-in wardrobes in the principal bedroom and pleasant green outlooks to the front.
Buyers should note an upstairs room has been part-converted for an additional shower room; plastering, extraction and electrics are in place but the shower room is unfinished and requires completion. The garage is divided and compact, and parking is on-street only. Services include mains utilities with a shared septic tank, which may be a consideration for some buyers.
Offered freehold in an affluent, low-crime rural community with nearby primary schools and decent secondary options, this cottage suits families seeking character with scope to personalise — especially those happy to complete the small upstairs project.
