Description

Agent Reference: HR1200

Detached Period Property | Quarter-Acre Plot | Elevated Position with Open Views | Vacant Possession

 

Originally built circa 1870 and owned by the same family since 1966, this locally known gem, The Cottage, offers a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique home. Elevated to the rear with an open aspect, the property enjoys the potential for far-reaching views and sits on an enviable quarter-acre plot.

In need of modernisation, yet bursting with character and possibilities, the home offers spacious living areas including a generous lounge with views over the rear garden, a dining area leading into a summer room, and a kitchen. The main floor also has three bedrooms to the front and a family bathroom.

The basement level provides additional flexible accommodation — currently an extra bedroom with its own entrance, shower ensuite, and access to the garage — perfect as a home office, annexe, or guest suite. Outside, there’s a gated driveway, garage, and extensive gardens with endless scope to landscape and enjoy.

About eXp UK, North West

114 St. Martin's Lane London WC2N 4BE

eXp UK are the newest estate agency business, powering individual agents around the UK to provide a personal service and experience to help get you moved.

Here are the top 7 things you need to know when moving home:

Get your house valued by 3 different agents before you put it on the market

Don't pick the agent that values it the highest, without evidence of other properties sold in the same area

It's always best to put your house on the market before you find a property

The estate agent acts for the seller and is there to get the seller the best price possible

Understand the length of time it can take - 14 weeks from when you accept an offer, or have an offer accepted to move in! A long time!

It can get stressful, but speak to your agent and your solicitor and they will put you in the picture

Be nice to estate agents - we're pretty nice people, offer some great advice and will help to get you moved ;-)
