Tucked away in a pretty row of houses above a famous town is this little gem ripe for rejuvenation by the right buyer.
The Grade II-listed property, thought formerly to be a gardener’s cottage, is in Glastonbury in Somerset, a short walk from the Tor in probably the historic town’s most desirable location.
It is for sale for £172,000 and is marketed by Holland & Odam, Glastonbury at OnTheMarket.
The ground floor entrance door opens into a living room, including a recessed window to the front, flagstone floor, exposed stonework and solid fuel Rayburn.
Stairs rise to the first-floor landing and a door opens into the kitchen. Here there is a window to the rear, flagstone floor and single drainer sink with mixer tap.
A door opens into a rear lobby, from where the patio area outside and the bathroom can be accessed.
This comprises a half-size bath with shower attachment and wash hand basin. There is a separate toilet which has a low-level WC, shower and its own wash hand basin.
On the first floor, there is a small landing area with two bedrooms leading off.
