Detached Victorian cottage in this sought after village.
Description
A most attractive detached cottage dating from 1875, having pleasing elevations of red and black brickwork under a slate roof. The cottage is now in need of complete modernisation yet offers huge potential for a buyer to improve and tailor the accommodation to their own needs. There could also be scope to extend or rearrange the layout, subject of course to any necessary permissions being obtained.
The front door with porch above opens into a small hall, the through sitting room has a fireplace and a cupboard housing the hot water cylinder. The dining room has a door through to the kitchen, and leading off is a small utility area with cloakroom. A further door from the dining room leads into the garage, an area of which has been partitioned off to provide an occasional bedroom. Stairs lead up to the first floor landing, and to the four bedrooms and bathroom.
Outside
From the lane, a driveway provides parking and leads up to the lean-to garage at the side of the house. There are small gardens to both front and rear.
