This one-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage on West Street, Leven, sits on a deceptively large plot including a formal lawn, greenhouse, brick storage shed and a substantial allotment. The house dates from before 1900 and retains period character, with a cosy reception room, beamed kitchen breakfast area and a versatile loft room. It is offered with no onward chain.
The property requires a degree of modernisation: there is solid brick wall construction likely without insulation, double glazing installed before 2002, and an EPC grade E. Heating is dual-fuel (mineral and wood) with gas central heating mentioned; some rooms use room heaters. These points mean running costs and improvement work should be factored into any purchase or letting plan.
For buy-to-let investors, first-time buyers or those seeking a small renovation project, the large garden, greenhouse and allotment offer strong rental or lifestyle appeal—space for vegetable growing, hobby gardening or extra storage. The cottage is freehold, chain-free and benefits from low flood risk, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, making it suitable for remote working and holiday-let potential.
Nearby amenities include village shops, a post office, pubs, and access to walks in the Yorkshire Wolds and nearby coastal resorts. Local schools are within easy reach, though the nearest primary has an Ofsted rating of "requires improvement"; other nearby primaries are rated Good. Viewings will suit buyers prepared to update the property to modern standards or investors seeking to add value.
