The Property
Inside
Ground Floor The cottage is approached from the road via steps leading up to the front garden and entrance. The front door opens into a useful porch with space for hanging coats and storing shoes, which leads through to the lounge/diner. This lovely room runs the full width of the front of the property and has windows to both the sitting and dining areas, filling the space with natural light. Both areas have an exposed brick chimney breast with a log burner, installed by the current owners, creating a real focal point and a cosy feel throughout the colder months. The whole space is finished with hardwood flooring, and stairs rise from the dining area to the first floor, with a large under-stairs storage cupboard below. The kitchen sits at the rear of the property and overlooks the rear garden. It is fitted with a range of wood-effect floor and wall units with laminate work surfaces, a tiled splashback and an inset sink with drainer. There is an electric oven with hob, together with space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and full-height fridge freezer. The kitchen has wood-effect flooring. A small rear hallway beyond the kitchen provides further space for coats and boots and leads out to the rear garden. First Floor Stairs rise to a bright landing with pleasingly high ceilings, a feature that continues throughout the first floor. At the top of the stairs is the family bathroom, which has been recently refitted and comprises a bath with shower over, a hand wash basin and WC, with tiled walls and laminate flooring. There are two double bedrooms, both positioned at the front of the property and both carpeted. The main bedroom benefits from built-in storage, while bedroom two is a well-proportioned double.
Outside
Gardens From the road, a couple of steps lead up to shared steps with the neighbouring cottage and on to the front garden, which has recently been enclosed with new timber fencing. A path leads through to the rear garden, which is enclosed and private, with walls and fencing to the boundaries. There is a paved seating area with raised brick-built planters, together with a section of lawn. A brick-built double shed provides excellent storage for garden equipment, bicycles and more. The property is one of a row of four cottages, and three neighbouring properties have a pedestrian right of way along the path through the rear garden. The sellers advise that this is rarely used, and that neighbours ask permission before doing so. Parking There is no allocated parking with the property. On-street parking is available nearby on a first-come, first-served basis.
