Greenhill Estates is thrilled to present this exceptionally spacious two-bedroom period cottage located in the highly sought-after village of Walkern. While the property requires some modernisation, it exudes character and offers tremendous potential for refurbishment into a stunning home. Having already undergone a double-story extension, this cottage is larger than others in the row, providing excellent opportunities to reconfigure its layout.

Upon entering the ground floor, you'll find a generous living room featuring a beautiful exposed brick fireplace and original floorboards. A door leads to an additional large living space with another exposed fireplace and a raised area where the kitchen is currently situated, along with access to a downstairs bathroom. Upstairs, there are two spacious double bedrooms, with the rear bedroom featuring a large window that allows an abundance of natural light.

Although the property does not have a garden, it includes a substantial brick-built studio with a small greenhouse and two large spaces that could serve as a summer house or workspace.

This property offers significant potential to be transformed into a charming home full of character. Despite the absence of outdoor space, there are many appealing aspects, and an internal viewing is highly recommended.

Please note, any viewings or offers that take place from this moment must be placed through the auction T&Cs as per the Sellers agreement.
