Located in the heart of Edgworth, this characterful mid terraced cottage perfectly balances period charm with modern comforts, offering a serene village lifestyle with easy access to local amenities and the surrounding countryside.

Inside the Home
As you approach, follow the elevated pathway to the front entrance, where you’ll step into a welcoming lounge that radiates a cosy, traditional feel. Here, soft, neutral tones and oak flooring create a warm atmosphere, perfectly complemented by a modern gas fire set within a classic chimney breast. The room is filled with natural light from a large front window that frames scenic views, providing a calming space to unwind or entertain.

Move from the lounge into the second reception room, currently set up as a dining area. This flexible space retains its classic appeal while adding a contemporary twist, with bold walls surrounding the chimney breast that now serves as an elegant, backlit shelf. French doors open out to the garden, inviting you to enjoy outdoor living—perfect for summer barbecues and relaxing with friends and family.

Adjacent to the dining area is the kitchen, which combines style with functionality. Featuring black painted cabinets with chrome handles, the kitchen is equipped with an integrated fridge-freezer, electric oven, four-ring gas hob, and a stainless steel extractor fan. A stainless steel sink and drainer are set into a contrasting countertop, providing a pleasant view of the garden, which often attracts local wildlife—an appealing aspect for nature enthusiasts. There’s also space and plumbing for a washing machine. For those looking to personalise their home, the current layout offers exciting possibilities. Consider transforming the existing kitchen into a utility room and expanding the dining room to create a spacious, open-plan living area—the potential for creativity is vast!

Upstairs Comfort
Head upstairs to find two well-sized double bedrooms. At the front, the main bedroom enjoys ample natural light and scenic views over the surrounding countryside. Decorated in calming shades, it comes with built-in wardrobes that match the oak interior doors, adding to the home’s cottage-like charm.

The second double bedroom, located at the back, features a vibrant turquoise palette and overlooks the tiered rear garden and the lush greenery beyond.

Next to the second bedroom, the family bathroom, though ready for some modern touches, is well-kept and functional. It includes a three-piece suite with a bath and overhead shower, a vanity unit with storage, a WC, and a heated chrome towel rail. Its current style is perfect for those looking to add their personal flair.

More to explore
From the closet in the main bedroom, access a staircase that leads to a generous loft room offering the possibility to be converted into a third bedroom.

Outdoor Living
Heading back downstairs, step out into the spacious, tiered rear garden—a perfect haven for relaxation and enjoying the outdoors. The garden is thoughtfully divided into several sections, starting with a paved patio area right outside the house, ideal for lounging in the summer sun.
