An exceptional and increasingly rare opportunity, this charming semi-detached cottage is nestled within the sought-after village of Carnkie and is offered to the market with the significant benefit of no onward chain.

Beautifully suited as a first-time purchase, a downsizing option, or an attractive lock-up-and-leave or investment property, this delightful home offers both versatility and appeal in equal measure.

The current owners have recently undertaken a programme of refurbishment, resulting in a property that is presented to an excellent standard throughout. The ground floor features a warm and inviting living room, enhanced by a striking exposed granite wall and a characterful fireplace with a period-style cast insert and timber surround, creating a cosy yet elegant focal point. We also understand that the owners have already installed a flexible flue liner, this in readiness for the installation of a wood burner to complete the room. The kitchen is fitted with contemporary units, complemented by polished granite work surfaces and integrated oven and hob.

Upstairs, the accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to provide two double bedrooms, both benefiting from access to a stylish Jack and Jill en-suite shower room. From the rear, the property enjoys far-reaching views across open countryside, adding to its overall charm.

Externally, the cottage occupies a generous corner plot, offering a gravel driveway with parking for two vehicles, with scope to expand further if required. The garden to the side of the driveway provides broad decked terrace, an ideal spot for taking in the days sunshine, this decking then opening to a further lawned area of garden. Additional features include a useful side store and utility building plus a small stone built outbuilding located within the corner of the garden.

Properties of this nature are seldom available, particularly with no onward chain, and early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate all that this delightful cottage has to offer.

Kitchen (2.84m x 3.89m)

The kitchen is stylishly appointed with a contemporary range of fitted units, complemented by polished granite work surfaces and attractive tiled surrounds. Integrated appliances include a stainless steel oven with hob and extractor hood, along with an inset stainless steel sink featuring a sleek mixer tap. The space is enhanced by tiled flooring and a characterful beamed ceiling, while a vertical designer radiator adds a modern touch. There is also room for a small dining table, making the area a practical space. A staircase with timber handrail and balustrade rises to the first-floor landing, and natural light is provided by double glazed windows to the front and side, along with a double glazed entrance door. A further door leads seamlessly through to the living room.

Living Room (2.9m x 3.68m)

A light and airy, characterful living room positioned to the rear of the cottage, enjoying delightful views over neighbouring gardens and extending to the countryside beyond. The room centres around an attractive cast iron fireplace set upon a polished granite hearth, framed by a charming period timber surround. Character features continue with exposed granite walling, adding texture and charm. A double glazed window with deep sill invites in natural light, while a classic column-style radiator complements the room’s timeless appeal.

Landing

Part turn stairs that ascend from the kitchen, timber panel doors that lead to the two bedrooms.

Bedroom One (2.92m x 2.92m)

Accessed via a panel door from the landing, this bright and inviting room is enhanced by a double glazed window to the front, flooding the space with natural light and offering a pleasant outlook over the village. A period-style column radiator sits beneath the window, adding both warmth and character, while a built-in cupboard provides useful additional storage, as this houses a radiator it would make an ideal airing cupboard. A door leads through to the Jack and Jill en-suite shower room.

Bedroom Two (2.72m x 2.87m)

The second bedroom is positioned to the rear of the cottage and enjoys a delightful far-reaching outlook across the surrounding countryside.

The Jack and Jill en-suite serves both bedrooms, providing convenient access to a well-appointed shower room. Tastefully fitted with a contemporary suite, the space features a generous shower enclosure with glazed door and stylish black framework, complemented by attractive, low-maintenance panelled walling and a Triton shower. A pedestal wash hand basin with tiled surround and a low-level W.C. complete the suite. Additional features include a double glazed window to the side, allowing for natural light and ventilation, along with a period-style column radiator adding a touch of character.

Store/Utility

Positioned to the side of the property is a highly practical utility and store room. Of timber construction, this versatile space is ideal for the storage of bicycles and outdoor equipment. It also houses the oil-fired boiler and offers plumbing for a washing machine, along with space for a tumble dryer, making it a useful and functional addition to the home.

Garden

The cottage enjoys a desirable corner position, with gardens extending to one side, creating a sense of space and privacy. To the side of the property, a lawned garden rises gently to a gravelled parking area, with the external utility/store conveniently located at the lower level. Beyond this, a timber decked terrace provides an ideal setting for outdoor dining and enjoying the sunshine. Steps lead down from the decking to a further lawned garden, enclosed by mature privet hedging which offers a good degree of privacy and seclusion. At the far end of the garden, a charming stone-built outbuilding adds character and potential for a variety of uses. Please note, the neighbouring property benefits from pedestrian access along the side of the cottage.
