We have pleasure in offering to the market this tastefully presented period, mid terrace cottage which has seen a considerable program of thoughtful renovation and modernisation combining both traditional and contemporary elements, some of which are not expected for a property of its size. The property has a considerable level of off road parking, an established rear garden which approaches 190 ft. in length and a substantial detached garage which potentially could house four vehicles plus workshop space.
Although large enough to accommodate a small family the property is likely to appeal to a single person or professional couple looking for a well presented home within a village setting and appreciating its good level of outdoor space ,which would certainly appeal to the car or motorbike enthusiast looking for generous workshop space or garaging.
The cottage offers versatile living over two floors with two main receptions, the main sitting room having an attractive, exposed brick chimney breast and inset solid fuel stove which leads through into a well appointed galley style kitchen and, in turn, a utility area/ground floor cloak room. To the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The property is tastefully decorated throughout and benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating with updated Worcester Bosch boiler.
The property is set back from the lane behind a low maintenance, open plan frontage which provides off road car standing and leads to the main entrance. However access off Main Road is a further lane to the rear of the cottages which leads to another parking area and, in turn, a substantial garage/workshop as well as a well maintained, enclosed garden which is generous by modern standards.
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
