Description

This quaint two-bedroom thatched cottage, nestled in a desirable village within the East Midlands, presents a valuable opportunity for anyone looking to invest in a property with renovation potential. While the cottage boasts charming period details like beamed ceilings and features such as gas central heating and double glazing, it is in need of general modernization to fully realize its charm. A new thatched roof was installed in 2025, providing peace of mind regarding one of the more significant aspects of cottage maintenance. The layout includes a cozy lounge with an inviting fireplace, a functional breakfast kitchen, two well-proportioned bedrooms, and a bathroom that could benefit from updating. Outside, a small front garden complements an enclosed rear garden with hard surfaces and useful brick storage units. Positioned conveniently for village amenities and featuring views over the local church, this property is not just a home but an exciting project for potential buyers eager to create their dream space.
