DESCRIPTION:
This charming three-bedroom character cottage, located on Church Road in the lively canal village of Braunston has no upper chain. It would be fair to say the property is in need of modernisation but, it offers loads of potential, a private rear garden and is much bigger internally than you may expect.
This cottage which really catches your eye as you drive along Church Road, offers plenty of ground floor space, boasting three reception rooms, a kitchen, separate utility room and even a ground floor shower room, along with plenty of character features throughout including wall and ceiling beams, original floorboards, and a rustic kitchen - all these character features help make this property feel very nostalgic.
The original property is believed to date back to the mid 1800's, historically its believed that the property was the home of the local Methodist Minister, as well as an isolation ward for the village children with scarlet fever and, at the turn of the century the property became a family home.
If you are looking for a period cottage with plenty of potential in a lively and popular village this is a great example and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
