A most charming period Cottage situated in a desirable village location dating back to c.1897 that is detached and offers huge scope for improvement with extension possibilities, subject to obtaining necessary planning permissions. Elm Cottage sits centrally in a plot measuring on average 27m x 20m and to the northern side has mature gardens with established shrubs, trees and lawn. This area then blends into the Southerly facing rear gardens with a number of brick outbuildings that offer storage and could be enhanced (as works will be required). On the Eastern side of the house is the Garage which requires updating or replacement. Internally the stairs run centrally up the middle of the house with Living Room and Dining Room set to either side and Kitchen and Cloakroom at the rear overlooking the gardens. On the first floor are 2 double Bedrooms that almost mirror the Reception Rooms below with a Box Room/3rd Bedroom and Bathroom at the rear. Property of this nature with such great potential rarely comes to market – early viewing advised.
