Traditional cottage with extensive rear land and parking, ideal for first-time buyers or small renovations.
Freehold terraced cottage with vacant possession
A traditional terraced cottage on Main Road, Ombersley, offered freehold with vacant possession. No 1 The Gallies blends period character — exposed beams and a brick facade — with a surprisingly large plot that includes an enclosed decked garden, off-street gravel parking and additional extensive rear land owned by the seller.
This property suits a first-time buyer or downsizer seeking value and scope. The accommodation is arranged over two storeys with modest room sizes and a single bathroom; some listings reference two bedrooms, so buyers should verify the current layout. Key practical points: heating is by electric room heaters, glazing is double but install date is unknown, and walls are solid brick with internal insulation — useful to know if considering energy upgrades.
The site offers clear potential: the extra rear land creates opportunities for garden expansion, landscaping or small outbuildings (subject to planning). It is vacant and ready for immediate occupation or refurbishment, with a freehold guide price of £195,000 (exclusive of VAT where chargeable). Important negatives to note: the property uses electric room heaters (no central heating), may require modernisation to improve energy efficiency, and glazing/insulation details are unclear.
Set in a prosperous village environment with good local amenities and a well-regarded first school nearby, this cottage provides a characterful, affordable entry into Ombersley real estate with scope to add value through targeted improvements.
