Charming period cottage with large garden and real refurbishment potential.
Chain free two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage
A traditional two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage tucked into the picturesque village of Aldbury, offered chain free and ready for a sympathetic refurbishment. Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the property combines period character—exposed brick façade, slate roof and chimney stacks—with a generous front garden and off-street driveway parking. The plot is larger than many terraces in the village, giving scope to re-landscape the garden or consider modest extension (subject to planning).
Internally the house is largely in original condition and requires modernisation throughout. Rooms are compact with low ceilings and dated fittings; some plasterwork showing wear. The building’s solid brick construction means insulating improvements are likely needed if you want to upgrade energy performance. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators, and glazing is double-glazed (install date unknown).
This cottage will suit a buyer looking for a project with real upside: renovate to create a comfortable village home or modernise to increase value. Practical points to note are the small room sizes, above-average council tax banding and the maintenance required to bring the interior up to modern standards. Local amenities, good primary schools and a mainline station a short drive away make this a convenient rural base for commuters or a quieter family home.
Sold freehold and with no onward chain, the property offers a straightforward purchase for someone prepared to undertake refurbishment. The setting—village green outlook, mature planting and a substantial garden for a terrace—retains strong village character and long-term appeal.
