Set in peaceful Chopwell Wood, this double-fronted semi-detached cottage offers generous family living across two reception rooms and a fitted dining kitchen. The house sits on a large, well-kept plot with a private patio and mature trees — ideal for children and outdoor life. A double garage and off-street parking add practical convenience.
Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms and a modern family bathroom; the principal bedroom includes a full wall of built-in wardrobes. Interior character includes fireplaces and traditional detailing, with scope to modernise decor and services to current standards. The home is comfortable now but will reward targeted updating.
Important practical points: the property has an EPC rating of G, solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, and LPG-fired central heating — these indicate potential energy and running-cost improvements are needed. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average; the hamlet location suits buyers prioritising rural living over commuter connectivity. Council Tax Band B keeps running costs relatively low.
This property suits families seeking a spacious, characterful home in a woodland setting who are prepared to invest in energy upgrades and connectivity. With large gardens and generous reception space, the house offers strong long-term potential once insulation and services are improved.
