This double-fronted, three-bedroom cottage blends period character with modern finishings across roughly 1,338 sq ft. Exposed beams, a stone chimney wall and bay windows sit alongside a high-spec shaker kitchen with island, herringbone floors and chandelier lighting — a comfortable family layout that feels both charming and contemporary.
Outside offers gated off-street parking, a detached garage and a manageable rear garden and paved courtyard for low-maintenance outdoor living. The home is gas‑heated with a boiler and radiators, largely double glazed (installed post‑2002), and sits in a very affluent area with fast broadband and strong mobile signal — useful for home working and family life.
Practical considerations: the property was built before 1900 and walls are assumed to have no insulation, which may mean higher heating costs or future retrofit work. Crime in the immediate area is reported as above average; buyers should satisfy themselves on local safety measures. The single bathroom and period layout may require adaptation for some households.
Well suited to families seeking a character cottage with modern comforts, the house is Freehold and on a decent plot near good primary and secondary schools. For buyers prioritising original features alongside contemporary fittings, this property offers an attractive, largely move-in-ready option with scope for energy upgrades.
