Description
Internal: Situated in a desirable location, this beautifully presented two-bedroom period cottage effortlessly blends character with practicality. Upon entering through the front door, you're welcomed into a bright entrance hallway providing access to the main living accommodation and staircase to the first floor. To the front of the property, the cosy living room benefits from charming original sash windows and enjoys an easterly aspect – ideal for catching the morning sun. Measuring approximately 11'11" x 9'11", this is a warm and inviting space to relax in. At the heart of the home, the spacious dining room offers ample room for a full dining table and chairs, as well as additional furniture such as a sideboard or shelving. Retaining its period character with original sash windows, this room measures 12'00" x 10'07" and also features a handy under-stairs storage cupboard. The rustic-style kitchen is located to the rear of the property and is full of charm, with wooden cabinetry and worktops, two larder-style cupboards, and exposed brickwork enhancing the cottage aesthetic. Double doors open onto the attractive rear garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living space. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized double bedrooms. The master bedroom measures 11'11" x 11'10" and includes built-in wardrobes, while the second bedroom measures 12'01" x 8'00" and enjoys views over the garden. Completing the accommodation is a contemporary shower room featuring a large walk-in shower with fixed screen, a low-level WC, and a modern floating wash hand basin. A built-in cupboard provides convenient housing for the boiler.
External: The front garden has been paved for easy maintenance and is enclosed by a low brick wall, with a welcoming pathway leading directly to the front door. To the rear, the garden truly shines – a private and fully enclosed west-facing retreat that enjoys afternoon and evening sun. A charming patio area provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining or relaxing, surrounded by an abundance of mature flowers, plants, and shrubs that create a vibrant and tranquil atmosphere. A brick pathway meanders through the greenery to a secluded shingle area, ideal for shaded seating. A wooden storage unit is also tucked away here, offering practical outdoor storage without compromising the garden's peaceful ambiance.
