There are two comfortable bedrooms and an elegant bathroom with underfloor heating. The loft is fully insulated and boarded for storage.

The kitchen is practical and well-planned, with plenty of storage and space as well as underfloor heating. A door at the back leads out to the private garden—ideal for summer BBQs or lazy weekends at home.

Outside, the garden wraps around the home, offering lots of privacy and calm spots at the front and back to relax or entertain.

Everything is move-in ready, with just the right amount of character thanks to original fittings, but there’s plenty of opportunity to update.

And here’s the bonus: There’s freshly approved planning permission, and architect’s plans for a big rear extension with a pitched roof—imagine a large, light-filled open-plan kitchen and living space that flows straight out to the garden. The potential is huge.

With no onward chain, heaps of charm, and exciting possibilities for the future, this home is ready for its next chapter. Come take a look—we think you’ll love it.
