Description
Property
A semi-detached former estate worker’s cottage dating from the 1850’s built with a mix of stone & brick external elevations under a slate tiled roof. The accommodation on the ground floor consists of an entrance hall, sitting room with a woodburning stove and walk-in larder, fitted kitchen and bathroom whilst upstairs there are three bedrooms. Although well presented, the property would benefit from being refurbished and has scope to be altered and extended with planning consent (P/HOU/2022/03870) granted 14th September 2022 to provide additional bedroom & living space. Contact the agents for the associated documentation.
Outside
A drive leads past the lawned garden to the front to an area of parking at the rear which could be landscaped to create a further area of garden. To the back of the cottage is a gravelled courtyard which gives access to a brick-built outbuilding providing a workshop/store and a boiler house. Please note that a strip of land at the front is retained for access to the adjoining property.
