A PICTURE-PERFECT CHARACTER COTTAGE with 2 reception rooms, the cosy living room with a log burner, a naturally bright kitchen, 2 double bedrooms, a delightful patio garden, a separate sun trap courtyard patio and off-street parking.

If ever a cottage looked like it had been lifted straight from a jigsaw puzzle, this would surely be it!

Packed with character, Stanhope Cottages is a highly attractive 2-bedroom cottage occupying an appealing position within this small and distinctive row of traditional properties.

With its striking timber-framed upper elevation, stone-built ground floor, mullioned-style windows and handsome stone roof, the exterior is immediately eye-catching. Step inside and the charm continues, with a surprisingly generous 799 sq ft of accommodation arranged over two floors.

There is a welcoming living room with character beams and a cosy log burner, a separate dining room with stone flooring, and a shaker-style fitted kitchen overlooking a lawned garden.

Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a generously sized bathroom with a jacuzzi bath and a separate walk-in shower

Outside, there is a sun trap courtyard patio adjacent to the driveway and a delightful private garden patio to the rear, which is enclosed.
