2 Bedroom Terraced House

DESCRIPTION

With unreasonably pretty views to the front, this adorable cottage retains the vast majority of it's original features; ornate coving, stain glass landing window and the plaster archway across the hallway - further, the rear of the property is unspoilt with a larger than expected garden with two outbuildings offering potential for parking/artist studio/home office etc.
 
Across a front garden that enjoys the afternoon sun and some blistering sunsets, is this delightfully individual two bedroom cottage. Entering through a hallway with coving and the ornate plasterwork typical of a traditional cottage, your eye is drawn to the top of the stairs where a shaped stain glass window reflects morning sunlight down the stairway.
 
Doors lead off to the sitting room and the kitchen, which are in fact open-plan on the ground floor with windows at either end of the property. The sitting room has a generous granite inglenook fireplace with a multifuel stove and deep alcoves either side with in-built shelving. The kitchen is packed full of charm with ornate coving, and original arched alcoves which have been incorporated in the room with built-in shelving and cabinetry.
 
The rear hallway offers understairs storage, a laundry/utility area with more storage and a family bathroom. The rear door is off this hallway leading to the rear garden.
 
To the first floor are two double bedrooms; with the principal room having an elevated viewpoint across fields to the front and down to the sea on the horizon. The main bedroom is a good size double with window seat and a built-in storage cupboard. The second bedroom is a double, and has views over the rear garden.
 
To the rear is a long garden that offers a lawned area with shrubs and specimen plants, before an outside WC and coal/wood shed combined in one building, followed by a further area of hardstanding witha  larger workshop/shed. This area could be re-imagined to create a working space, or if needed (and subject to any planning) could be cleared to create off street parking.
