One-bedroom village cottage with courtyard and handy outbuilding, ideal for commuters.
Freehold mid-20th-century terraced cottage with character features
A charming mid-20th-century one-bedroom terraced cottage in Wilstead, offered as a freehold ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers seeking character and commuter convenience. The living room retains exposed beams and an open fireplace, creating a warm, characterful space. The home measures around 576 sq ft and sits on a generous plot with a rear courtyard and a useful outbuilding for storage.
The cottage is well placed for everyday needs: the village primary school and local shops are within easy reach, while major transport links (M1, A6 and the nearby mainline rail services) make commuting straightforward. Council tax is described as cheap and the area has very low crime and fast broadband — practical benefits for working buyers or those moving from rental into ownership.
Practical considerations are clear: accommodation is limited to one bedroom and one bathroom, so space will suit a single occupant or couple rather than a family. The open fire is a lovely period feature but will require regular chimney maintenance and a safety check. The property presents an opportunity to personalise and modernise certain finishes while retaining its cottage character.
Overall this freehold home combines period charm with commuter-friendly location and outside storage. It will appeal to buyers looking for a manageable, characterful starter home with scope to update and make their own.
