2 Bed Cottage For Sale

Property Insight:

Tucked away, close to the village green and situated on a peaceful pathway of prettily aligned cottages, is this recently renovated terraced property.  As you step inside, the cottage immediately feels warm and inviting.  The porch leads through into the open-plan, downstairs living space.  LVT flooring and crisp white decor run throughout the ground floor and enhance the sense of space and light throughout.  With plenty of space to configure a layout to suit your needs, the downstairs is incredibly versatile.  The sitting room is an ideal spot to unwind after a busy day, with a feature fireplace providing a lovely focal point.  There’s ample space for a couple of comfy sofas, and it’s easy to imagine spending time here with family and friends.

The dining area is located between the sitting room and kitchen and has plenty of room for a table and chairs.  Located next to the staircase, there is also full-size understairs cupboard which provides handy storage.  Following on from the dining area is a bright and contemporary kitchen.  Featuring stylish sage-green shaker-style cabinetry, warm timber worktops and a skylight that floods the room with daylight, it’s a practical and appealing space.  Appliances include an integrated induction hob, double electric oven and fridge-freezer and there is room for a washing machine.  The breakfast bar provides additional seating space and is the perfect spot for enjoying a morning cup of coffee or glass of wine with friends.  A glazed door provides direct access to the garden, and the perfect set up for hosting barbecues during the summer months.  

Completing the downstairs is a modern bathroom with a monochrome theme.  Sleek black subway wall tiles and a black vanity unit smartly contrast with the modern white suite which includes a full-size bath with shower over.

Heading up the newly carpeted stairs, the upstairs has also been freshly refitted with a plush grey carpet.  The main bedroom is a spacious double that is wonderfully bright, thanks to its double windows.  There is plenty of room for furniture and it is a well-proportioned and airy room.  The second double bedroom also has good dimensions and enjoys views over the garden.

Outside, the rear garden has been recently landscaped to create a tidy, low-maintenance space with a lawn, patio and timber-edged borders.  It’s a great space for children to play or for hosting summer gatherings.  A gate at the bottom of the garden provides handy access.  To the front of the property is a low maintenance, shingled and walled garden.  The property has one allocated parking space (plus visitor parking) and is offered with no onward chain.
