This early-1900s mid-terrace cottage offers a compact, characterful home with sensible running costs and scope to personalise. The ground floor has a kitchen/dining area with a multi-fuel burner, a cosy lounge opening to an enclosed front garden, a useful lobby and a separate ground-floor WC. Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms, one enjoying distant Humber Bridge views, plus a family bathroom. Two off-street parking spaces and a workshop with power increase practicality.
The house is freehold and modest in size (around 806 sq ft), with low council tax (Band A) that will suit budget-conscious buyers. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators; glazing is double but the installation date is unknown. The property sits on a decent plot with a paved seating area, fruit planting, a potting shed and a useful workshop — appeals to buyers who want outdoor space without high maintenance.
Be straightforward about condition and running costs: the solid brick walls are assumed to have no added insulation, the EPC is D, and there is a medium flood risk for the area. There is also an informal arrangement with neighbours to share private-lane upkeep costs. Local area metrics note higher crime and relative deprivation — important for buyers to research. These factors mean some targeted investment (insulation, energy improvements, flood precautions) would increase comfort and resale value.
Overall, the cottage will suit a first-time buyer or couple seeking a ready-to-live-in home with character and outdoor space, and who are willing to carry out modest improvements over time. The location close to Waters Edge Nature Reserve, local amenities and good transport links adds everyday convenience and long-term appeal.
