About
An extended semi-detached cottage set on a substantial plot, offering exceptional potential and a true lifestyle opportunity.
Occupying an impressive plot that stretches generously from front to rear, this extended semi-detached cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home combining character, space, and significant future potential.
Enjoying a semi-rural setting, the property is perfectly suited to buyers seeking a quieter lifestyle with room to grow, develop, and personalise.
The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance into a spacious dining area, forming the heart of the home and ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
This space flows seamlessly into the main living room, creating an open and sociable layout.
The living room is a standout feature, enhanced by three front-facing windows that flood the room with natural light, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere.
At its centre is a striking feature fireplace set within a stone surround with exposed brickwork, complete with a multi-fuel stove—adding both warmth and character.
Leading from the living room is a ground floor family bathroom, fitted with a freestanding bath and WC offering a blend of practicality and traditional style.
To the rear, the extended dining kitchen provides a range of fitted wall and base units, along with ample workspace and room for dining.
This area is ideal for family living and entertaining, with French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces.
A particularly versatile feature of the home is the ground floor fourth bedroom, offering flexibility for a variety of uses including guest accommodation, multi-generational living, or a home office.
To the first floor, there are three further well-proportioned bedrooms along with a second bathroom, providing comfortable and adaptable accommodation for modern family life.
The bathroom is not fully fitted. Externally, the property truly excels. The generous plot offers extensive outdoor space, with ample off-road parking to the front and side.
Gated access leads through to the expansive rear garden, which offers tremendous scope for further landscaping, recreational use, or even smallholding potential.
The scale of the grounds provides a sense of privacy and openness that is rarely found.
The property has undergone some remedial works but remains partially unfinished, offering buyers a fantastic opportunity to complete and tailor the home to their own specification, ultimately creating a truly outstanding residence.
Further benefits include LPG gas supply and a septic tank drainage system, which may require updating to meet current regulations.
An exciting opportunity to acquire an extended semi-detached cottage on a remarkable plot, ideal for those seeking space, character, and the chance to create a unique home.
