This deceptively spacious three-bedroom semi-detached cottage sits on Walkern High Street, offered chain free and ready for a family to move in and adapt. Period features—including exposed timbers, brickwork and two brick fireplaces—give the house strong character, while three reception rooms provide flexible living space for adults and children.
Practical benefits include a generous shared driveway with space for three cars and a private rear garden that enjoys a high degree of seclusion. The layout comprises entrance porch, lounge, dining room, breakfast/family room, fitted kitchen, downstairs shower room, and a first-floor bathroom serving three double bedrooms. A first-floor rear window offers distant countryside views.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property is a pre‑1900 solid brick build with no recorded cavity insulation (assumed), and descriptions reference oil-fired central heating while records also note a mains-gas boiler—prospective purchasers should verify the heating type and energy performance. Council tax is above average for the area, and parts of the house may benefit from updating or insulation improvements to reduce running costs.
Overall, this village cottage will suit families seeking character, space and parking in a very affluent, low-crime setting close to well-rated local primary schools. It offers immediate comfort with clear potential to increase value through targeted refurbishment and energy upgrades.
