Compact cottage within a sought after Cathedral Street with a pretty south facing courtyard garden.
The Property:
Charming period cottage with accommodation over two floors, behind a period red brick façade, with inset windows with sash openers and under a clay tile roof. Internally, the property has remarkably high ceilings which creates a feeling of space. A traditional painted front door opens into an entrance hall with a fitted oak floor; stairs rise to the first floor with fitted cupboards beneath. The sitting room has a window to the front aspect with a sash opener and secondary glazing; a decorative fireplace is flanked by fitted cupboards with bookcases above. The kitchen/dining room accounts for the full width of the house and, again, has an oak floor and is fitted with a neat arrangement of hand painted units to one side, with granite countertops and upstands. There is also space for a table and chairs. This room has two windows and a part glazed door that open into the garden, which creates a light and airy atmosphere. The first floor has a good double bedroom with two windows to the front aspect, and fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom has a rear aspect ‘Gothic style’ window, as does the adjacent bathroom which has a bath with shower over and fitted screen, low level W.C. and wash hand basin. Outside, the rear garden is largely paved for ease of maintenance with a garden store, shrub borders and is south facing.
