In summary

No chain! A charming and meticulously renovated two bedroom mid terrace cottage awaits you at this delightful abode. Perfectly situated with no chain attached, this end of terrace cottage emanates a sense of tranquillity and comfort. Upon entering, you are greeted by a beautifully presented sitting room featuring an inviting inglenook fireplace housing a woodburner. The newly fitted kitchen/dining room can be found beyond with access to the garden. As you ascend to the upper level, two cosy bedrooms await, each offering a peaceful retreat. The well-appointed bathroom provides a sanctuary for relaxation, encompassing modern amenities for your convenience. Outside you will find the private enclosed rear gardens providing a serene outdoor space ideal for unwinding. To the front of the cottage there is also driveway parking available for multiple vehicles. What makes this listing a little more unique is that adjoining the cottage, there is also a building plot available by separate negotiation or combined with the overall purchase. The plot provides active planning permission for a separate cottage to be built attached to the terrace row or for a large double storey extension to be built to the existing cottage for sale. A purchaser could of course do neither of the suggested and buy the plot and incorporate the plot into the gardens of the existing cottage. Plenty of options exist. Planning reference numbers are DC/24/03139 or DC/25/03709.
Setting the scene

Approached via the frontage you will find shingled driveway parking for two vehicles in front of the cottage. The main entrance door to the front can be found straight ahead as well as an attractive low level picket fence. The plot adjacent is currently open with no defining boundary line.
The grand tour

Entering via the main entrance door to the front you will find the main sitting room with stairs to the first floor as well as an inglenook fireplace housing a newly fitted woodburner.
