Leura Cottage, Union Street, Bishops Castle

A most individual and appealing town cottage which offers characterful accommodation in a contemporary style. Comprising 2 bedrooms, shower room, kitchen/diner, conservatory, lounge, cloaks/WC, off road parking for two and manageable south facing gardens. Set in an unusually peaceful town centre location, close to amenities and with views beyond to the countryside.

General Remarks - Leura Cottage is an individually designed, modern detached dwelling, finished in a cottage style with two bedrooms and shower room to the first floor and a living room, kitchen/diner, conservatory and cloaks/WC to the ground floor.

Characterful features abound with large modern flagstones to the ground floor and exposed timber boards to the first floor. The lovely kitchen/diner is finished with natural coloured units, solid oak worktops and timber internal doors. The cosy living room boasts a Clearview stove and the shower room is tastefully finished with a white suite and a large walk-in shower cubicle and exposed beams on show. The conservatory has a 'mosaic' tile floor and benefits from the south facing orientation.

Surprisingly, it enjoys a remarkable degree of privacy, given its quite central position and is only a minute's walk from the hustle and bustle of the High Street. Its gardens, whilst small, are well presented with the valuable bonus of two off road parking spaces. Its position also offers pleasant roof top views beyond the town to open countryside.
