Kingston Road, Kingston

A wonderful opportunity to enjoy a rural lifestyle with this chain-free, detached three-bedroom single-storey cottage, set within grounds of just over 1.8 acres.

Originally built in the 1950's with a later extension to the rear, Pond Cottage offers well-balanced accommodation and has benefited from some refurbishment in recent years, including replacement double glazing and a new roof covering.

The home is warmed by an oil-fired central heating system and features a spacious lounge with an attractive decorative cast-iron fireplace, a kitchen/breakfast room with ample storage and space for dining, a useful cloakroom, three good bedrooms and a bathroom.

Outside, the grounds extend to just over 1.8 acres and include an open garden area with an old stable building, generous parking and turning space, and a superb woodland section with natural ponds, providing a wonderful blank canvas for the keen gardener and a haven for wildlife.

Please note that the property is of part timber and part masonry construction and therefore may have a limited ability to secure a mortgage against it.
