If you are looking for a lifestyle change on a budget, this property could be for you. It is a fabulous end of terrace 3-bedroom house, located in the quiet village of Cowden, benefitting from off street parking and large private garden. It borders on the village allotments, is opposite the recreation ground and offers a host of opportunities to become involved in village life. The community offers several clubs including tennis, Pilates, coffee mornings in the village hall, an active parish church and a station 1.3 miles from the property. The property is close to the city by car or train, yet glowing in the charming aspect of a typical English village with a host of healthy, outdoor activities on its doorstep.
You can take a stop at the local pub for a light lunch and a drink, on your way home from the allotment with your wheelbarrow piled high with your organic produce. There is an annual village fete and lots of opportunities to meet others in the village. The property is minutes from Golf clubs, Furnace Lane and miles of open countryside which offer excellent walking opportunities. The village boasts 2 pubs, the Fountain pub almost opposite the house and the Queen’s Arms at Cowden Pound.
This fantastic home offers three double bedrooms, family bathroom, kitchen, conservatory, downstairs bathroom, upstairs shower room, and basement which is currently used for extra storage.
Entering the house, you are welcomed into the sitting room, which has exposed floorboards and a log burning stove, perfect for those cosy nights in front of the fire. You still have the opportunity to heat the house with the back burner from the fire and the ecologically friendly, SMART heating system in the home. The large window to the front floods the room with light.
Off the lounge is the kitchen which has a good range of wall and base units and drawers under worktops and space for a dishwasher and washing machine. The kitchen also benefits from an understairs storage cupboard, which fits a decent sized fridge/freezer. From the kitchen you can enter the conservatory, providing extra living space which can be configured to suit your needs while enjoying picturesque patchwork of hills, fields, woods and kitchen gardens from your chair. The kitchen and upstairs bedrooms offer different perspectives on the same enticing view.
The family bathroom is located off the kitchen – it is fully tiled and has bath with shower attachment, wash hand basin and low-level toilet.
Stairs lead from the entrance hall and take you to the first-floor landing with access to three double bedrooms and an en-suite shower room. Bedroom two and three are doubles, located at the back of the property overlooking the garden and pleasant views of the countryside. There is plenty of attic space.
