Characterful rural cottage with garden and skylit first-floor lounge.
End-of-terrace two-bedroom quarryman’s cottage with period character
A charming two-bedroom quarryman’s cottage presented with a sympathetic, modernised finish while keeping its original character. The bright first-floor lounge with skylights and a multi-fuel stove is a standout living space; the kitchen-diner’s slate-flagged floor and patio doors open directly to a mature, well-stocked rear garden. The home feels cosy and characterful, ideal for buyers wanting a compact rural base or a holiday/second home.
Practical features include timber double glazing, LPG central heating with a boiler and radiators, an outside utility with plumbing, and private off-street parking for a very small car. The cottage is freehold, has fast broadband, and low council tax — useful for early-stage buyers mindful of running costs.
Important considerations are plainly stated: ceilings are low in parts, the original granite/quarry stone walls are likely uninsulated (typical of the age), and the property uses bottled LPG which can be more expensive than mains gas. Parking is very limited and only suits a small vehicle. The village and immediate area score as very deprived economically, though the setting delivers dramatic mountain views and ready access to outdoor recreation.
Overall, this property suits a buyer seeking authentic period character with modern comforts already in place, who values rural location and outdoor access. It will particularly appeal to first-time buyers or those wanting a compact second home prepared to accept some period limitations and ongoing LPG costs.
