" A charming period semi detached cottage benefitting from off road parking, garage and beautifully manicured, larger than average gardens.


This charming cottage is constructed of rendered stone elevations under a pitched tiled roof and has been extended over time to create a spacious three bedroom property. The accommodation benefits from gas central heating, double glazing throughout and comprises an entrance hall with a downstairs bathroom, the living room opens through to the sitting room creating a fabulous dual aspect room with open fireplace currently capped off and sliding doors lead out to the rear gardens. In addition is a separate dining room and a modern kitchen enjoying views of the gardens. Upstairs are three double bedrooms, all of which are serviced by a family shower room.
Although well maintained the property would now benefit from some updating to bring it up to todays standards and the potential exists to knock the kitchen into the sitting room to create open plan living.
