Set in the peaceful village of Whitehough, this stone terraced cottage blends character features with practical modern upgrades. The compact layout delivers a cosy reception room, a well-appointed L-shaped kitchen with integrated appliances, a generous bedroom and a sizeable bathroom — all arranged over multiple levels for classic cottage charm.
Practical details suit a first-time buyer looking for a ready-to-live-in home with further potential: double glazing (post-2002), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, freehold tenure and low council tax keep running costs manageable. Outside there is a small, low-maintenance garden and access to a double hard-standing offering two parking spaces (available by separate lease).
Be clear about the main drawbacks: the EPC is D and the original sandstone/limestone walls are likely uninsulated, so energy efficiency could be improved. The property sits in a medium flood-risk area — suitable insurance and flood-awareness are important. Plot size is small and the parking is subject to a lease fee.
For a buyer seeking village life near good local schools and amenities, this cottage provides characterful living in an affluent, low-crime area with excellent mobile and fast broadband. It’s an attractive entry property with scope for targeted energy upgrades to increase comfort and reduce bills.
