Perfect as a first home or for those busy buyers looking for a compact property, this sweet period cottage has a good size en suite bedroom and its own elevated garden to the rear.
The Property - Located towards the edge of town, within sight of the countryside and yet handy for facilities, this compact cottage has been well laid out to make the most of the available space on offer.

Accommodation - Part of a small terrace of Grade II listed 18th century cottages, the property has typically deep window sills now with double glazing, and electric heating. The open plan living area and kitchen is dual aspect with the rear door opening out to a shared pathway with old stone steps leading up to the level rear garden above. There's space to eat informally at the breakfast bar and the kitchen units incorporate electric hob, oven and cooker hood, with metro tiling to the splashbacks. The stairs lead straight up into the spacious double bedroom with built-in storage and en suite shower room with double shower, sliding glass door and Mira shower. A mezzanine area above the bedroom is useful for additional storage.
Outside - The garden is elevated at the rear of the property and accessed via shared path and old stone steps. It's currently predominantly enclosed by fencing and laid to gravel and artificial grass for ease of maintenance providing a sunny spot to sit out. There is also a timber shed and raised beds, alongside a Magnolia tree.
