Property description
Delightful four bedroom semi-detached character cottage with some lovely features, large lawned gardens and an excellent range of workshops/outbuildings, which can be utilised for a variety of uses. The property does require a degree of finishing off but represents a superb ‘project’ opportunity. The cottage has a utility/boot room, large kitchen/dining room, sitting room and a study/family room. On the first floor there are four good sized bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom. Externally the property has an enclosed courtyard with garaging, sheds and workshops. The gardens are beautiful, mainly laid to lawn with a terraced decked area. The main workshop could easily convert into a wonderful games room, or indeed into holiday or granny/teenage annex (subject to planning). The property would prove ideal for two family occupation or for those looking to run a business from home, with its vast space and lots of additional parking and two entrances.
