Description

Yvonne Fitzgerald is delighted to bring to the market this charming country cottage, which is in a scenic rural setting, a short driving distance from Wick. This cosy home is extremely private and is surrounded by mature trees, hedging and flowers. This is the ideal rural home for someone who is wanting to get away from it all for a change of lifestyle. The property is accessed through a lean-to porch which gives access to a generous utility room. The utility in turn leads to the well-presented front hall that leads to the lounge and two double bedrooms. The lounge has both feature and mural walls and incorporates a cosy multi fuel stove which is surrounded by a wooden fireplace. The two double bedrooms are both bright and are of good proportions. There is a shower room with a feature stone floor in the shower enclosure and the stone basin is built into a vanity unit. Beside the shower room is the country kitchen which has been designed in keeping with the character of the home. The kitchen benefits from a freestanding cooker, a fridge freezer as well as a steel Belfast sink.
The garden extends to approximately a third of an acre and is well established. The garden grounds are mainly laid to lawn with many varieties of plants, hedging, trees with a small area of astro turf to the rear. There is also parking for two cars within the driveway.

The Royal Burgh of Wick is the most northerly town on the East Coast of Caithness and is on the very popular North Coast 500 (NC500) tourist route. The town offers multiple stores such as Tesco, Boots, Superdrug, Argos, and B&M, as well as banks and a post office. The house is within easy driving distance of all amenities, including the hospital and doctor's surgery.
