This charming period cottage, previously inhabited by the renowned author D. H. Lawrence, offers a rare investment opportunity in the quiet village of Hermitage. Situated on an expansive plot, the property boasts great potential for extension (subject to planning permissions) and reconfiguration to enhance its charm and functionality. While currently habitable, the interior requires modernization, presenting an exciting blank canvas for buyers looking to tailor their home to contemporary standards.
Spanning approximately 1,266 square feet across two floors, the ground floor features two sizable reception areas—a spacious living room alongside a separate sitting room that could serve as an annex if desired. A bright kitchen/diner with an adjacent pantry and a separate WC round out the first level’s offerings.
The upper floor accommodates three generously sized bedrooms, complemented by a family bathroom. Outside, the well-established garden provides ample space for leisure activities and future landscaping developments amidst mature trees and shrubs that offer year-round privacy and aesthetic appeal. A private driveway accommodates up to three vehicles, enhancing convenience.
This cottage not only stands as a testament to period architecture but also represents significant lifestyle investment prospects in one of Hermitage's most picturesque locations. With its close proximity to local amenities and beautiful countryside surroundings, this property is poised for those ready to turn it into their dream home.
