A characterful mid-terrace cottage in the heart of Ruardean, newly renovated and offered freehold at an entry-level price. Recent improvements include new double glazing and doors, loft and wall insulation, solar panels and a newly installed air source heat pump with radiators, helping reduce running costs. The property retains period features — exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace and exposed floorboards — that give the home immediate charm.
Internally the layout is compact and practical: a sitting room with wood-burning stove, a kitchen, a shower room plus a separate cloakroom, and two small bedrooms (one currently used as a dressing room/study). Ceiling heights are low and overall accommodation is small (circa 579 sq ft), which suits first-time buyers, downsizers or a holiday-let investor seeking a character bolt-hole rather than a family home.
Outside there’s an enclosed cottage-style garden with mature shrubs, countryside views and a new garden shed. Note there is pedestrian right of access over the neighbour’s rear/side pathway. Broadband is reported fast, and the property is in a rural village location close to a primary school with Good Ofsted rating.
Important practical points: the house is an older build (pre-1900) and wall construction is stone/brick with assumed limited cavity insulation — buyers should confirm insulation details and the condition of the heating systems despite recent upgrades. The plot and rooms are small and ceiling heights are low, so viewings should be arranged to assess space and storage in person.
