This pair of semi-detached Grade II listed cottages offers a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, originally constructed as a single dwelling. Their layout presents the possibility of reconfiguring the two into one expansive family home or developing an annex, which could suit multi-generational living or even rental purposes, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Nestled in a charming semi-rural area within the desirable village of Wortham, these properties have been successfully rented out by the current owner for several years, indicating their strong appeal and potential as income-generating assets. Each cottage retains its own character while sharing essential services, making them ideal candidates for thoughtful modernization.
