Property description
A rare opportunity to renovate and refurbish this period cottage throughout. Although probably more for the experienced developer, or the brave, as this is a major project. Ultimately could be restored and extended to provide a family home in a central village location.
Description
This end of terrace 19th century cottage is now in need of complete renovation throughout. It does retain a few period features and could have potential to extend subject to the necessary permissions. The gated driveway provides ample parking for a number of vehicles and leads to a separate large garage/workshop. The rear garden is approx. 100' long and houses a stone built coal shed. Whilst overgrown with bramble and shrubs it would not be a major job to clear this out. The real work lies internally. You enter the property through a small porch and into the lounge. This room has a wooden sash window to the front aspect, boarded fireplace and door through to the dining room. In the dining room you find an open gas fireplace, with under stairs storage, doorway to kitchen and door to stairs. The kitchen is housed in an extension to the rear and also provides the downstairs bathroom. Through the door in the dining room you rise up the stairs and find two decent size bedrooms, with one rear aspect and one to the front. Both these rooms show signs of damp issues in the ceilings and suggest that the roof will require some immediate attention. As described this property requires some significant renovation but would make for an interesting project and opportunity for the right person.
