McEwan Fraser is delighted to present this charming four-bedroom semi-detached cottage to the market. Originally two separate cottages that were thoughtfully combined many years ago, the property has been a much-loved family home and now offers generous, versatile accommodation extending over two floors.
The flexible layout is one of the home's greatest strengths. Two well-proportioned double bedrooms are located on the ground floor, making the property particularly appealing to buyers seeking the option of predominantly single-level living while retaining the additional space upstairs for family members, guests, or home working. The accommodation also includes a spacious living room, a separate dining room, a well-appointed kitchen, and a bright sunroom overlooking the garden, creating a home that can easily adapt to a variety of lifestyles.
Externally, the property enjoys a private west-facing rear garden that captures the afternoon and evening sun, providing a wonderful space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing. A shared driveway to the rear leads to two allocated parking spaces, while additional unrestricted on-street parking is available nearby.
Although the property has been lovingly maintained throughout its ownership, it would now benefit from a degree of modernisation and cosmetic updating. This presents an excellent opportunity for the next owner to enhance and personalise the accommodation, creating a distinctive family home that successfully combines traditional character with modern comforts.
An additional opportunity exists for purchasers seeking further flexibility or investment potential. The adjoining two-bedroom cottage at 242A is also available for sale separately. Acquiring both properties would create an ideal arrangement for multi-generational living or provide a self-contained investment with excellent potential for the short-term holiday let market, subject to any necessary consents and licensing requirements.
