This compact mid-terrace cottage in central Shap offers a tidy, move-in-ready one-bedroom layout ideal for a first home. Recent works include a new boiler, new fuse box (2022), damp-proof tanking, replastering and decorating, plus double glazing and gas central heating for year-round comfort. The house is sold with no onward chain.
A notable practical advantage is the preparatory groundwork: foundations are already in place for a one- or two-storey extension, giving clear scope to increase living space subject to planning. The rear yard is low-maintenance and includes a wooden shed and rear access — useful for storage or small outdoor needs.
Buyers should be aware this is a traditional Victorian terrace with relatively small rooms, modest footprint (approx. 517 sq ft) and older stone walls likely without insulation. Broadband speeds are slow locally and parking is on-street. Overall, the property suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors wanting a well-presented starter home with scope to add value.
