A charming mid-19th-century terraced home with original character and practical outdoor space. The bright sitting room features exposed stone, a bay window and a wood-burning stove, while the kitchen/dining room opens to a long, private garden that’s ready for landscaping or simple outdoor living. Two double bedrooms sit upstairs alongside a modern bathroom and boarded loft with a skylight.
Off-road parking and a central location make this cottage a strong choice for a first-time buyer or commuter. Gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and an Energy Rating of D provide everyday comfort, and the property’s footprint (about 820 sq ft) is typical of an average-sized town cottage.
There is scope to personalise and add value: cosmetic updating, insulation improvements and sympathetic modernisation would open up potential. Notable practical points include assumed uninsulated stone walls, an EPC of D and an older construction date (pre-1900) — factors to consider for long-term running costs and any renovation plans.
Buyers should also note the local area records very high crime levels; visitors will want to assess neighbourhood safety and parking at different times. Council tax is modest and the location is convenient for shops, schooling and the mainline station, combining town and country access for commuters and families.
