Charming Victorian Cottage in a Sought-After Village Setting
Description
Tucked away on a generous and discreet plot, this attractive brick-built Victorian cottage forms one of a pair of former workers’ cottages, ideally situated just off the main street of this well-served and desirable village. Offered to the market with vacant possession, the property presents a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a characterful home with scope for enhancement.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and has been well maintained throughout, offering well-proportioned living spaces.
