Compact character home near village amenities, ideal first-time buyer.
One double bedroom with upstairs en-suite shower
A compact, characterful stone cottage in the peaceful village of Mere, offered freehold and ideal for a first-time buyer or downsizer. The open-plan ground floor features exposed beams, an inset wood burner and a simple fitted kitchen — a cosy living space with period charm. The first-floor double bedroom includes an en-suite shower, keeping accommodation straightforward and low-maintenance.
Practicalities are clear: the house is small (about 366 sq ft), heated by wall-mounted electric heaters with a wood burner supplement, and has double glazing. There is no rear garden, but a pleasant front seating area provides room for a table and chairs. Communal off-street parking is available nearby on a first-come, first-served basis.
Be realistic about running costs and improvement needs. The EPC is F, the stone walls are likely uninsulated and primary heating is electric, so energy bills and upgrade costs may be higher than average. The property sits in a medium flood-risk area and has very limited internal space, so it suits someone seeking a low-upkeep, character cottage rather than a family home. Council Tax is Band A, which helps running costs.
Local conveniences include nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good, basic village amenities, and rural walking opportunities. For buyers who value traditional character and a compact, move-in cottage to personalise, this offers genuine potential; budget for energy improvements and be comfortable with limited space and parking arrangements.
