Martine Cottage is a charming mid-terrace cottage which has undergone numerous improvements over recent years including double glazed windows and doors and a new bathroom.

The accommodation is commenced via a useful entrance porch with an attractive encaustic tiled floor providing space for shoe and coat storage. A further partly glazed door leads into the sitting room where there is a fireplace with a multi fuel stove inset acting as both a feature of the room and running the central heating system. A solid wooden floor runs throughout the room and to one corner the stairs rise to the first floor.

There is an integrated fridge/freezer and an electric oven and hob, with space and plumbing for a washing machine and a slimline dishwasher. 

On the first floor landing there is access to both bedrooms and the bathroom, plus a storage cupboard and a hatch to access the loft space which has a drop-down ladder. Both bedrooms are of double proportions, the one at the front has a cupboard which houses the hot water cylinder. The modern bathroom comprises a white suite which has a bath and separate shower cubicle with an electric double rainfall shower head. The room is half tiled in a natural finish with a heated towel rail and vinyl flooring.

To the rear of the cottage is an enclosed low maintenance garden. Directly from the kitchen there is a decked terrace with space for an outside dining table, and a log store to one end.
