Introduction

A Charming Character Cottage Close to the Town Centre

This beautifully presented detached two-bedroom cottage, believed to date back to the 1830s, perfectly combines period charm with modern comforts. Situated on a private road shared with just three other properties and just a short walk from the town centre, the property enjoys the rare benefit of space for two parking spaces and is offered with no onward chain.

The front garden has been thoughtfully landscaped into a traditional cottage garden, bursting with colour and character, while the rear offers a private, enclosed courtyard – a low-maintenance and peaceful space, ideal for relaxing or entertaining.

A large and versatile outbuilding is divided into sections, including a useful utility room, storage shed, and a practical outside W.C. Inside, the cottage exudes warmth and charm: A cosy lounge features a newly installed wood burner stove with cooking facilities, while the spacious kitchen/diner with stable door opens directly onto the courtyard garden.

Upstairs, two bedrooms and a well-appointed bathroom complete the accommodation.

This is a truly delightful home, full of character and charm, that simply must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
