This semi-detached two-bedroom cottage blends period character with modern fittings across an average-sized 685 sq ft layout. A welcoming lounge features an inglenook fireplace and log burner; the shaker-style kitchen with Belfast sink opens to a defined dining area and doors onto a secluded rear garden. The modern bathroom includes underfloor heating; a walk-through room upstairs gives flexible space for a dressing area, study or potential second bedroom conversion.
Practical benefits include potential for off-street parking to the walled front (subject to necessary consents), very low local crime, no flood risk and cheap council tax. The property dates from c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated), mains gas boiler with radiators, double glazing (install date unknown) and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — convenient for work and family life.
Notable considerations: tenure is recorded as unknown and would need verification; the solid-brick construction likely lacks wall insulation and may benefit from energy upgrades. The plot is small and there is a single bathroom; any front parking will require planning or dropped-kerb consent. Local secondary school Ofsted rating is ‘Requires improvement’ (Thorns Collegiate Academy), while nearby primary schools are rated Good.
Overall this is a stylish, adaptable home for a first-time buyer or couple seeking character with modern comforts. It offers immediate liveability with clear scope to improve energy performance and potentially add off-street parking (subject to approvals).
