This stone-built mid-terrace cottage sits on the edge of Farmborough, offering village proximity with a rural outlook. The house retains period features — exposed stone, two feature fireplaces and a wood-burning stove — that give the living space genuine character. Practical benefits include off-street driveway parking for two cars and a mostly lawned, enclosed rear garden with a patio and outbuildings suitable for storage or a small home gym/workshop.
Accommodation is compact and arranged over two floors: a combined sitting/dining room with a feature fireplace, a rear kitchen with wooden worktops and space for appliances, a ground-floor bathroom and two first-floor bedrooms. The layout and scale suit a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance period cottage with strong village school options and fast broadband connectivity.
There are some material points to note. The stone walls are likely uninsulated (original construction 1900–1929), so buyers should budget for insulation and energy improvements. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown. The overall footprint and internal rooms are modest; purchasers wanting larger or open-plan living would face significant reconfiguration. Council tax is described as cheap and there is no flood risk.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the cottage’s proportions, character and garden. This property offers a manageable, characterful home in a very affluent rural setting, with clear potential for energy upgrades and cosmetic modernisation to increase comfort and value.
