This Grade II listed mid-terraced cottage combines authentic period character with a surprisingly generous rear garden. Exposed beams, solid oak latch doors and a Swithland slate roof give the house cottage charm, while gas central heating and a fitted kitchen provide everyday comfort.
Accommodation is compact: lounge, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and useful attic space with rear Velux rooflights. The large mature rear garden and brick outhouse are standout assets — the garden stretches beyond the outhouses and offers scope for entertaining, storage or a rental/holiday-let income stream.
Important considerations: listed status means repairs or alterations may be more complex and require consent. The internal footprint is small (approx. 478 sq ft) and some external former outbuildings/ outside WCs are dilapidated. Despite these points, the property is offered freehold with no upward chain, making it straightforward to purchase for a first-time buyer, landlord or Airbnb operator.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the layout and outside space. The cottage sits in a well-served village close to the parish church and primary school, with good mobile signal and average broadband — convenient for everyday living or short-let guests.
