Chain-free period cottage — successful holiday let with sunny garden and scope to improve energy efficiency.
Chain free mid-terrace period cottage, newly refurbished throughout
Two double bedrooms and an upstairs shower room
Sunny, easy-maintenance rear garden with patio spot for garden room
Proven successful holiday let — good rental potential
Contemporary kitchen and sun room opening to sitting room with log burner
Electric room heaters and EPC D — likely higher running costs
Original sandstone/limestone walls assumed uninsulated (upgrade potential)
Compact 748 sq ft layout — cosy rather than spacious
Lavender Cottage is a charming, newly refurbished mid-terrace period home in North Creake, offered chain free and already proven as a successful holiday let. The house combines original features with a contemporary kitchen, sun room and a cosy sitting room with a log burner — a layout that appeals to short-term rental guests and buyers seeking a character cottage.
The property has two double bedrooms served by an upstairs shower room and a pretty, easy-maintenance garden that captures late afternoon sun — a logical spot for a future garden room. At roughly 748 sq ft, the cottage is compact but well arranged, ideal for holiday use, a lock-up-and-leave second home or a simple permanent residence.
Be clear about the running costs and fabric: heating is by electric room heaters, the EPC is rated D, and the original sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated. These factors may mean higher energy bills and potential scope for improvement (insulation, upgraded heating) if you plan long-term occupation.
For an investor the record as a successful holiday let and the desirable coastal hinterland location are strong positives. For an owner-occupier seeking a low-maintenance rural base, the cottage offers immediate comfort with scope to tailor energy performance and garden layouts to personal taste.
