A compact, characterful mid-terrace cottage offered chain free and ideal for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor. The sitting room has exposed floorboards, a substantial brick fireplace and a woodburning stove that adds warmth and period charm. The kitchen is stylish but modest in size and opens to a private paved courtyard with a small shed. Gas central heating, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the house practical for modern living.
Accommodation is arranged over three levels: sitting room, small kitchen, two first-floor bedrooms and bathroom, plus an attic room suitable as a dressing room or study (restricted standing height). The property has sympathetic period features including sash-style windows and weatherboard cladding, but internal space is limited and ceiling heights vary. The layout suits a couple, small family or rental use.
Buyers should note the cottage requires some updating and modernisation to reach its full potential. Glazing is secondary and the original timber-frame walls are understood to lack insulation, so improving thermal performance will be a likely cost. The rear outdoor space is a very small courtyard rather than a garden, and there is no off-street parking. Overall, this is a centrally located historic cottage offering good rental or entry-level purchase potential, with scope for value uplift through targeted refurbishment.
