A Charming semi-detached, two-bedroom character home with gardens, parking and original features throughout.
Welcome to this charming period property, rich in character and nestled in a peaceful rural setting. The front door opens into a bright and inviting hallway, featuring an original staircase and a convenient downstairs WC. From here, the staircase leads to a spacious first-floor landing that enjoys calming views of the surrounding countryside.
The generous, double-aspect sitting room is the heart of the home, offering a cosy atmosphere with original full-height fitted cupboards set neatly beside a character fireplace, complete with a chimney liner. A large window allows natural light to fill the space. Off the sitting room is both a practical utility room, fitted with a sink and plumbing for a washing machine, and a well-appointed kitchen offering a range of wall and base units for ample storage and workspace.
Upstairs, the property features two comfortable bedrooms, both with original fireplaces and large sash windows that bring in plenty of natural light. The family bathroom includes a bath with overhead shower, WC, and washbasin. There is also exciting potential to extend into the loft space, subject to the necessary planning consents. The south-facing windows and door are double glazed for improved energy efficiency. This delightful home blends timeless period features with modern functionality, set in a picturesque and well-connected village location.

To the rear, an enclosed backyard provides access to the original stone outbuildings, perfect for storage or workshop use. Additionally, there is off-street parking for up to three vehicles.
