Occupying a charming position in the heart of the picturesque village of Powburn, this delightful two-bedroom detached cottage offers characterful and well-proportioned accommodation, complemented by an established garden to the rear.
Upon entry, a welcoming vestibule opens into the kitchen and dining area, a bright and inviting space with original floorboards adding warmth and character. From here, a convenient rear porch provides direct access to the garden, creating an easy connection between the house and its outdoor space.
The accommodation flows naturally through to the comfortable sitting room, where an Esse wood-burning stove creates an attractive focal point and a cosy setting during the cooler months. A useful utility room sits just off the sitting room and incorporates a WC, providing valuable additional practicality.
Upstairs, a bright landing is naturally lit by a Velux window, while the high ceilings throughout the first floor enhance the space. The principal bedroom is a generous double with fitted storage, accompanied by a second well-proportioned double bedroom. Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom, fitted with a shower over bath.
Externally, the cottage benefits from an established garden offering a lovely balance of lawn, mature planting and productive growing space. The garden is particularly well suited to those with an interest in gardening, with excellent soil for growing vegetables and plants alongside established rose and peony bushes which bring seasonal colour. An open area of lawn provides space to relax and enjoy the garden, while a useful garden shed offers practical storage.
