Characterful two-bedroom near station—ideal for first-time buyers seeking convenience.
Chain free town-centre cottage with church views
A charming two-bedroom Victorian terrace set in a secluded town-centre spot with direct views of All Saints' Church. The house offers character details—multi-paned windows, an impressive brick fireplace and a bright sitting/dining room—that give immediate period appeal. Offered chain free, it is a short walk to the mainline station and town amenities, making it especially convenient for commuters and first-time buyers.
The layout is compact and practical: entrance porch, sitting/dining room, small fitted kitchen, modern ground-floor shower room and two first-floor bedrooms. Ceiling heights are generally low and the total floor area is modest (around 500 sq ft), so the home suits a couple, a small family or someone seeking a town-centre pied-à-terre. The courtyard rear garden is a sunny, low-maintenance sun trap and there is a small enclosed front garden.
Practical considerations are straightforward: no off-street parking though resident permits are available nearby; the property has double glazing installed before 2002, a mains gas boiler and radiators, and an EPC rating of D. The solid brick walls likely lack built-in cavity insulation, which may mean higher heating usage compared with modern builds. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent.
This property presents an attractive, ready-to-enjoy period home with scope to personalise and improve energy performance. Buyers wanting larger rooms or generous outdoor space should note the modest overall size. For commuters and buyers prioritising location and character over scale, this is a convenient, chain-free opportunity in a very affluent, well-served area.
