One of a pair of semi-detached cottages, this charming two bedroom home is believed to date back to the late 18th century and retains many features typical of the era.
It will not suit everyone. Ceiling heights are notably low in places, and those over 6ft are likely to need to mind their heads around some of the exposed beams and door frames. For the right buyer though, this is very much part of the cottage’s appeal and character.
There are a number of attractive period features throughout, including traditional sliding sash windows, handmade peg tile roofing, and open fireplaces to both the sitting room and dining room.
The property is entered via one of the principal reception rooms, which features an attractive Victorian-style fireplace and stairs rising to the first floor. Off this room is a particularly useful cupboard with a window, currently arranged as a compact study area with space for a desk and shelving.
The sitting room is a comfortable and characterful space, centred around an exposed brick chimney breast with fitted wood burner, together with built-in understairs storage.
An inner lobby provides access to the ground floor bathroom, which is fitted with a roll-top bath and separate shower cubicle.
The kitchen overlooks and opens onto the courtyard garden and benefits from a slightly vaulted ceiling, helping to create a greater sense of space. It is fitted with a comprehensive range of cupboards and includes a ceramic butler sink, dishwasher, washing machine, oven, and space for a fridge freezer.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms, both enjoying partly vaulted ceilings which further enhance the cottage feel.
Outside is where the property really stands out. The front elevation is especially attractive, with white-painted brickwork and arched windows combining to create a quintessential English cottage appearance.
To the rear, the garden is a real feature of the property. It is well maintained, private in feel, and arranged with a concrete courtyard area leading onto lawn, deep flower beds, and a raised decked seating area.
Overall, this is a delightful period cottage with a great deal of charm, and one which compares very favourably with many similar homes in the market.
