Set in the heart of rural Fence, Ingle Cottage is a double-fronted, characterful semi-detached home offering generous two-bedroom accommodation across approximately 1,010 sq ft. The property keeps many period cues in its stone walls, larger windows and original fireplaces, and benefits from mains gas central heating and double glazing. Vacant possession is offered, making it ready for a new owner to move in and personalise.
Internally the layout is practical for everyday family life: two separate reception rooms, a basic fitted kitchen and two double bedrooms upstairs. The room sizes and natural light make the house feel spacious for a two-bedroom home, and the side courtyard plus rear garden provide usable outdoor space for storage and low-maintenance planting.
There are clear renovation priorities: the property needs cosmetic updating throughout and the coloured four-piece bathroom requires replacement. The walls are original sandstone/limestone with assumed no insulation, so buyers should factor potential thermal upgrades. EPC is to be confirmed and the tenure is leasehold — these are material points to check early in any offer.
This house will suit buyers seeking a character cottage in a quiet, affluent hamlet — ideal for a small family, downsizers wanting rural life, or first-time buyers prepared to invest modestly in improvements. With very low local crime, fast broadband and good nearby schools, it offers a solid base with clear scope to add value through sympathetic refurbishment.
