Having been in the same family since it was built in 1882, this attractive half-tile-hung semi-detached cottage now requires refurbishment, having been let in recent years.

The property has central heating, double glazing and was re-roofed 9 years ago.

Internally, the property would benefit from cosmetic updating and potentially extending, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Its garden wraps around the house to the side and rear and backs on to woodland. There is a brick outhouse to the rear of the cottages to be included in the sale with No.1.

There is a shared parking area adjacent to the adjoining cottage, and it is proposed that No.1 will have space to park two vehicles in tandem there. There will be a right of way across the back of No.2 to access the rear door.

The rear entrance door opens into a lobby area with a floor-standing boiler in the corner and winding staircase leading to the first floor. The lobby opens into the kitchen with its high ceiling and leads up a couple of steps through to the sitting room.

The kitchen is currently sparsely fitted with a single base cupboard and worktop with sink. There is plumbing for a washing machine and space for a free standing cooker and fridge freezer.

The sitting room has a fireplace with tiled surround, arched alcove, fitted shelves and window to the front. Leading off of the sitting room is the old front entrance vestibule as well as a small study/work room with window overlooking the garden to the side.

The bathroom is located off the kitchen on the ground floor and comprises a panelled bath, washbasin and WC, with obscured glass window to the rear and wood effect laminate flooring.

Arranged over the first floor are three double bedrooms.
