A charming detached period cottage in a quiet village setting, offered chain free and ready to move into. The bungalow provides two double bedrooms, a comfortable living room with a red-brick open fire and bespoke shelving, plus a fitted kitchen/dining room with quality Smeg appliances — all arranged on a single, accessible level.
The mature, private rear garden is a real asset: mainly lawn with paved terraces, fruit trees and established borders, ideal for gardening, entertaining or potential single-storey extension (subject to planning). There is one off-street parking space accessed via a rear track and an enclosed gravelled front area for additional visitor parking.
Practical points to note: heating is from an oil-fired boiler and the property uses a shared water supply and septic tank, with maintenance costs divided between the connected homes. The building is of solid-brick, pre-1900 construction with assumed lack of cavity insulation, so there is potential to improve energy efficiency. Broadband is slow in the area despite excellent mobile signal.
This bungalow will suit buyers seeking low-step living in a peaceful village — ideal for downsizers or those wanting a weekend country base — and it also offers modest scope for improvement or energy upgrades to add value.
