Description

This three-bedroom, semi-detached cottage offers a rare opportunity for renovation in a picturesque setting. Full of character and charm, the property may appear modest from the outside but reveals a surprisingly spacious interior that's just waiting to be brought back to life. The ground floor features a generous hallway leading into a cosy living room, which opens into a conservatory and there is also a breakfasting kitchen, alongside a ground-floor double bedroom, a separate shower room and bathroom. Upstairs, the dormer-style roof adds further space, with a double bedroom, single bedroom and an attic room offering flexible living options. A standout feature is the large solid fuel stove, which provides heat throughout the property, adding warmth and a rustic touch. With some renovation, this hidden gem can be restored to its former glory, ideal for those looking to add value and create a bespoke home in a peaceful setting.

EXTERNALLY
The property enjoys garden grounds to the front and side, which, while now in need of some clearing, clearly show signs of having been thoughtfully stocked and well-maintained over the years. The vehicle access to the other side of the property serves both The Old Smiddy and the neighbouring home, providing convenient entry. Beyond this access, additional garden ground offers private parking along with a range of small outbuildings. Although in need of some attention, with some care and creativity the garden could become a standout feature.
