This Victorian mid-terrace in Wolsingham is a chain-free, freehold two-bedroom home suited to first-time buyers or young families seeking character and practical space. The living room centres on a multi-fuel burner for cosy evenings, while a new gas combi boiler and radiators provide modern heating. uPVC double glazing is already installed.
Outside, a south-facing garden is arranged in three attractive tiers, enjoying open hillside views and plenty of daylight. There is off-street parking for two vehicles and a stone-walled rear yard with an outdoor tap — useful for storage, bikes or muddy boots after countryside walks. The property has a fully boarded attic, offering scope to convert for extra living space (subject to approvals).
Practical considerations: the house is of Victorian sandstone/limestone construction and walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow. The plot is modest in size and the layout is traditional, so any extension or major overhaul will need planning checks. EPC C and low council tax give sensible running costs compared with larger period homes.
Overall this is a characterful, well-located home in a sought-after village, offering immediate move-in readiness with clear potential to increase living space via the boarded loft. Buyers should weigh the appeal of period features and views against possible insulation upgrades and limited broadband performance.
