Stylish 2 bedroom terraced home in a peaceful village setting with wood burner, versatile living space, modern kitchen, sleek shower room, courtyard garden and no onward chain.

Having undergone significant renovation by the current owners, number 12 Castle Street is now presented to the market as a beautifully finished 2 Bedroom terraced home. Set on a popular and peaceful road right in the heart of the village, the property is only a short stroll from the local pub, shops and everyday amenities, making it an ideal location for both convenience and community.

Inside, the house offers stylish and versatile accommodation, beginning with a welcoming Living Room centred around a charming wood burning stove set into the chimney breast. Across the Hallway, a second Reception Room provides flexible space that could serve as a dining area, home office or hobby room to suit a variety of lifestyles. To the rear lies the impressive Kitchen, where a high ceiling and twin Velux roof lights create a bright and airy feel. The Kitchen is fitted with a selection of base units and includes a 2-ring gas hob and built-in oven together with space and provision for a washing machine. Adjoining the kitchen is a contemporary ground floor Shower Room, finished to a high standard and featuring a walk-in double shower, a low level WC and a cabinet-mounted sink. Upstairs, the main Bedroom is generously sized and benefits from 2 built-in wardrobes and a front-facing double glazed window, while the second Bedroom, also a good size, has its own built-in cupboard and matching front aspect window.

To the rear, a fully enclosed courtyard garden offers a charming low-maintenance outdoor retreat, laid mainly to stone chippings with a patio seating area and a side border ready for fresh planting.

Currently operated as a successful Airbnb by the present owners, the property could continue as a holiday let investment or be enjoyed as a comfortable permanent home. With the distinct advantage of no onward chain, number 12 represents excellent value in a sought after location and an early viewing is highly recommended.

Agents Note

The property has recently benefited from significant improvements, including a brand new slate roof, full electrical rewire, updated plumbing, new double glazing throughout and the installation of modern energy-efficient electric radiators. The property was previously leasehold with an absent landlord, meaning no ground rent was ever charged and the freeholder could not be identified. When the current owner purchased, the title was converted to freehold, which is now registered as ‘qualified’ in case a landlord was ever to come forward. To provide peace of mind, an indemnity policy is already in place to cover this, and in practice it has not presented any issues. Buyers are, of course, advised to take their own legal advice.
