Compact village home with modern fittings and long lease.
Chain free sale, ready to move in
A neatly renovated two-bedroom stone cottage in the heart of Fence Village, ready to move into and offered chain free. The seller has completed a full rewire, fitted a new boiler and installed UPVC double glazing, so the home is low-maintenance and comfortable from day one. The open-plan kitchen/living space feels surprisingly modern for the cottage’s compact footprint, with integrated appliances included in the sale.
Outdoor space is limited to a narrow side yard with gated access and on-street parking; there is no private driveway. The footprint is small (approximately 463 sq ft) and the property sits directly on the town road, so buyers seeking large gardens or complete privacy may find it constrained. The EPC is a D and the stone walls are likely uninsulated, so further efficiency improvements are possible.
The long lease (825 years remaining) removes immediate leasehold pressure, making this suitable for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors wanting a low-upkeep cottage in a very affluent, low-crime village. Local pubs, shops, and countryside walks are all within easy reach, offering a blend of village character and commuter convenience.
Overall, this cottage will appeal to buyers who prioritise location, character and a turnkey finish over generous interiors or outdoor space. Any purchaser wanting to increase energy performance or extend living space should factor in typical renovation costs for older stone buildings.
