The cottage has been rented out for a few years and is now offered for sale with no onward chain, having been well maintained and recently updated by the current owners so theres little to do. Its cob construction under a slate roof and not listed so it benefits from modern uPVC double glazing which certainly helps with both heat and sound insulation. Theres a mixed heating system of both an electric boiler for some radiators and modern electric heaters, plus a working wood burner in the living room. At the front of the cottage is an entrance porch giving a buffer to the front for those with younger children pets and a useful study or occasional bedroom 3 which is a real bonus room at this price point. The living room has a recent neutral carpet and there is an original stone fireplace with the wood burning stove and double doors lead to a second side porch. The kitchen is at the back, fitted with base and wall units and a bathroom completes the ground floor. On the first floor are the 2 double bedrooms.

Outside, although technically the cottage doesnt have a garden or parking, there is some outside space owned by the cottage and it may be possible to utilise this for a small courtyard or even parking stp . The area to the side left of the cottage is part of it, as is a strip across the back and there is sole ownership and no official right of way for anyone else over this land. On street parking is readily available locally.
