2 bedroom cottage for sale

Full description

A recently refurbished, mid-terrace cottage, with two bedrooms, a box room/child's bedroom and a loft room, in a quiet, central position, close to both town centre amenities and to lovely countryside walks.

The front door opens into a hallway that has a wooden floor and plenty of space to hang winter coats. A cloakroom, containing a WC and hand-basin, is conveniently placed beneath the period staircase, along with two storage cupboards. The wooden floor continues into the open-plan and spacious living/dining room that has display shelving built into recesses on either side of twin chimney-breasts. The dining area has plenty of room for six around a good-sized table. Double-glazed French doors lead out into the walled courtyard.

The kitchen, of good size, and with a quarry-tiled floor, is fitted with modern, solid wood units from the Thomas Chippendale range. These high and low-level units provide ample storage and are complemented by tiled splashbacks, under-pelment lighting, and granite-effect worktops along three walls. The integrated double oven and dishwasher are by Miele, as is the halogen hob, with extractor hood above. There are recesses for an upright fridge/freezer, and for a washing machine. Enclosed by a wall unit is the condensing combi-boiler, providing heating and hot water on demand. A double-glazed door leads out to the rear courtyard.

Upstairs, on the first floor there are two double bedrooms. The master bedroom is light and airy, with an en-suite shower room, comprising a shower cubicle, WC, a hand-basin and heated towel rail. Both bedrooms have period fireplaces, and storage space built into the chimney-breast recesses. The box room, currently used as a study, would also make a great child's bedroom. The modern family bathroom comprises a bath with a glass-screened shower over, a WC, and a tile- topped low-level cupboard with a contemporary wash-basin above. There is with an airing cupboard, a heated towel rail and a durable vinyl floor covering.
A narrow staircase from the landing, leads to a loft area with a vaulted ceiling, which is carpeted and divided into three separate, versatile areas. The first with a Velux window providing natural light, is ideal as a hobby room perhaps, and has doors to additional eaves storage.

Outside, the rear, walled courtyard is private and low-maintenance, with plenty of space for a table and chairs, ideal for outside dining or sharing a bottle of wine with friends and relations. A door at the rear leads onto a service lane accessed from Eagle Place. Unrestricted on-road parking is available nearby, but, alternatively, subject to the necessary planning consents, the courtyard could be adapted to provide private parking.
