Description

Offered at public auction, this two-bedroom cottage is being sold with the part-shell of the adjoining cottage, No. 63. The existing home is No. 61, and the combined site offers scope to refurbish the cottage and consider how the adjoining structure might be completed. Planning consent granted in 2022 for an extension into the adjoining property has expired; any future scheme would require the necessary permissions and consents. The previous proposal included a larger ground-floor living room, an en-suite bedroom and a family bathroom upstairs. The property has a large garden and a rural outlook, with open countryside bordering most sides. Access is on foot only, alongside No. 57 Churchtown. Mains water, electricity and drainage are stated to be connected, and ultrafast broadband and mobile coverage are reported as available in the area. Buyers should consult the legal pack and verify the property's condition, access arrangements and planning position before bidding.

Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £95,000, this two-bedroom stone cottage is priced at £216/sq ft, 37% below the local average—a strong acquisition point for a buyer seeking a substantial project. Exposed stonework and joists, unfinished interiors, an overgrown garden and the adjoining open part-shell offer scope to reshape and improve the property, with the rural outlook and large garden adding appeal. The fitted kitchen and bathroom fixtures are already present, though both spaces look utilitarian. The works range is £12,000–£25,000. It is being sold by auction: bidding can take the hammer above the guide, so the eventual price may not stay this cheap.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the exposed-stone cottage interiors into a more cohesive home while retaining the character of the stone and fireplace.
  • The adjoining part-shell offers scope to explore a larger layout or other use, subject to fresh planning permission and consents.
  • Clear and improve the large garden to make more of its countryside outlook.

Key risks

  • The partly finished interiors, open adjoining shell and overgrown garden make this a substantial, multi-part project; the £12,000–£25,000 works range and programme need careful checking against the scope.
  • Pedestrian-only access may complicate deliveries and the practical logistics of renovation.
