Set in a quiet side street within easy walking distance of Alston’s centre, this stone-built mid-terrace offers characterful, flexible accommodation across three floors. The house was formerly two cottages, giving a pleasing layout with an inglenook-style fireplace, exposed stonework and sash-style windows that will appeal to buyers seeking period charm.
The property has four bedrooms and a generous, terraced rear garden with private seating areas and specimen planting. It sits in an elevated position with garden access up to the road; a separate stone store at the front provides useful secure storage for bikes and outdoor gear. There is potential, subject to permissions, to create vehicle access from the upper road.
Practical points: the house requires updating and energy-efficiency improvements, currently heated by electric storage heaters and likely to need insulation and modernising. Parking is on-street only and the footprint is compact, so buyers should expect smaller room sizes and multi-floor living. Offered chain-free, this is a strong opportunity for a first-time buyer or small family prepared to carry out improvement work to unlock the property’s full potential.
