The central hallway connects both these reception rooms via a kitchen equipped with plumbing whilst the downstairs bathroom features a bath and sink. To the rear of the cottage is a long room connecting the kitchen to the rear garden and the downstairs WC. Upstairs are two bedrooms, one double and one single, although some reconfiguration would likely be required due to the second bedroom opening straight onto the stairs.
The cottage boasts a fully enclosed and varied plot of c.0.15 acres with an attractive countryside outlook. At the rear of the plot is a series of part-block/part-corrugated metal outbuildings, in addition to a further, large corrugated metal shed/garage at the front of the property. The majority of the garden is otherwise laid to lawn with a large vegetable patch immediate behind the cottage.

Guide Price: An indication of the seller’s current minimum price at auction. The guide price of range or guide prices is given to assist consumers in deciding whether or not to pursue a purchase. It is usual, but not always the case that a provisional reserve range is agreed between the seller and the auctioneer at the start of marketing. As the reserve is not fixed at this stage and can be adjusted by the seller at any time up to the day of auction in the light of interest shown during the marketing period, a guide price is issued. This guide price can be shown in the form of a minimum and maximum price range within which an acceptable sale price (reserve) would fall, or as a single price figure within 10% of which the minimum acceptable price (reserve) would fall. A guide price is different to a reserve price (see separate definition). Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
Reserve Price: The seller’s minimum acceptable price at auction and the figure below which the auctioneer cannot sell. The reserve price is not disclosed and remains confidential between the seller and the auctioneer. Both the guide price and the reserve price can be subject to change up to and including the day of the auction.
