This two-bedroom semi-detached stone cottage blends period character with practical living space across two storeys. Exposed beams, a stone fireplace and wooden flooring give the living room a warm, distinctive feel, while a fitted kitchen/diner provides a usable family hub. The property extends to about 910 sq ft and includes a garage with shared driveway for off-street parking.
Internally the home is ready to move into with a modern bathroom and two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes. It suits a first-time buyer seeking character and a manageable home to personalise. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working and streaming.
Important constraints are factual: the house sits in an area classed as very deprived with a high local crime rate, and the plot is small. The stone walls date from before 1900 and are assumed to lack insulation, so buyers should budget for energy-improvement works. Double glazing is installed but predates 2002. Despite these issues, the property is freehold and council tax is low, making running costs comparatively modest.
Local amenities include shops, leisure facilities, healthcare and good-rated schools nearby, which supports family life and convenience. For buyers prepared to improve thermal efficiency and accept the neighbourhood context, this cottage offers character, size and a garage at a competitive price point.
