This two-bedroom character cottage sits on a quiet street within easy walking distance of Markyate High Street. The dual-aspect living/dining room feels welcoming and the modern kitchen provides practical everyday space. A private, low-maintenance courtyard with a sun deck is ideal for outdoor relaxation without large garden upkeep.
Upstairs offers two good-sized bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom with an over-bath shower. A useful loft room—accessed by a pull-down ladder with a Velux window and hard flooring—adds flexible storage or occasional guest space but has limited headroom and access.
Practical features include mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and freehold tenure. The house is built before 1900 with solid brick walls and is assumed to have no cavity insulation, so buyers should consider insulation or energy-efficiency improvements. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent.
Positioned for commuters and village life, the property offers straightforward access to the M1, M25 and nearby rail links, plus good local schools and amenities. Overall size and plot are modest, making this a manageable home for first-time buyers seeking character close to services, or purchasers prepared to invest modestly in energy upgrades.
