DESCRIPTION
Set at the end of a row of terraced houses is this two bedroom miners cottage in need of updating and refurbishment. It offers huge potential as it benefits from having gardens, a large garage and workshop along with an additional 0.6 acres of land.
A garden room wraps around two sides of the property and allows plenty of natural light in. From the garden room, a door leads into the kitchen which has a range of wall and base units with space for a fridge and washing machine. The electric cooker is presently situated in the utility room but this could be reconfigured, if desired. The sitting room is spacious offering ample room for armchairs and a sofa with a rear aspect looking over the garden and a back door giving access to the rear garden.
An open staircase leads from the sitting room, up to the bathroom and two double bedrooms. The fully tiled bathroom was refitted three years ago and comprises; a good sized walk-in shower, toilet, wash hand basin and heated towel rail. The larger of the two double bedrooms is at the rear and has views over the gardens while the front bedroom has an outlook over the neighboring allotments. Both bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes. From the landing there is access via a loft ladder to the attic room which generous in size and has a Velux window.
OUTSIDE
Outside there is parking for two or three cars along with a huge garage with up and over door. This is split internally in two halves with garage access from the front and workshop access from the rear. A footpath leads around the house past a small area of lawn to the rear garden. This consists of a a rockery and a variety of plants and shrubs.
To the rear of the workshop is a metal kennel and an old vegetable patch along with a few trees and more shrubs, this in turn leads to the parcel of land which measures over 0.5 acres. There is an old caravan and wooden shed on site and it's bordered by a post and wire fence. It really is a blank canvas for a new owner to put their own mark on.
It is extremely rare to find a property with this much potential and also with this amount of land so really should be viewed at the earliest opportunity.
