Set on historic East Street, this pretty stone cottage blends original character with practical space. The living room with a feature fireplace flows through a dining area into a well‑appointed kitchen with direct garden access; exposed stonework and period details give genuine cottage charm. The house is offered chain free and has been in the same ownership for thirty years, presenting a rare chance to move straight in or personalise further.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms on the first floor — the master is generous and bedroom two is large enough that a third bedroom could be formed if required. The south‑facing enclosed garden and large paved patio receive good sun and offer private outdoor space, while a gated side driveway leads to a detached garage/workshop and additional stores, useful for parking, hobbies or storage.
Practical points: the property already benefits from a mains gas combi boiler, UPVC double glazing (installed before 2002) and all mains services. EPC is D and walls are cavity-built “as originally constructed” with no added insulation assumed, so there is scope to improve thermal efficiency and running costs. Broadband and mobile signal are acceptable for everyday use.
A straightforward purchase for families or downsizers seeking character in a small town location. Note the cottage shows signs of age (period damp risk noted internally in places) and would reward targeted updating rather than full refurbishment. Viewing is advised to assess layout changes and any specific repair works before committing.
