Available either as a whole or in two separate lots, 1 & 2 Fir Tree Cottages, currently form part of the Holbrook Estate.
The accommodation is set out over two floors and offers potential for renovation with views over open countryside and under a mile to the River Stour. Internally they both offer 2 bedrooms to the first floor with kitchen/ dining area, sitting room and family bathroom on ground floors. A plot of 0.77 of an acre surround the cottages on all sides, and are predominantly laid to lawn. Parking is available for both properties, please refer to plan to see full boundaries and access; currently a shared driveway edged in blue on plan which runs through 1 Firtree Cottage leading to 2 Fir Tree Cottage.
Services: Mains Water and electricity. Shared private drainage which does currently comply.
Ground Source Heat pump: There is currently two separate boilers, one in each cottage, linked to one shared ground source heat pump; this is currently under the RHI scheme (Renewable Heat Incentive). If the properties are sold and used as one single dwelling, the new vendor will no longer be able to receive the RHI subsidies. If the properties are sold and used as they are currently, two separate vendors, then these subsidies will continue under the scheme; an agreement will then need to be made between the vendor's as to who takes over the ownership of the RHI scheme and organise how the future subsidies will be split. The GSHP sits within the neighbouring land, owned and retained by the current vendor, and they have agreed to an easement to access and maintain the GSHP only, for the duration of its life time. Once it is past economic repair, the GSHP will be decommissioned and the purchasers will be required to install a new heating system within their own boundary(s) at their own cost.
Holbrook is a sought-after village on the Shotley Peninsula offering endless walks and open spaces in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village has a convenience store, church and village hall, butchers, GP surgery, public houses and a well-regarded primary school, Holbrook Academy, as well as independent schools such as The Royal Hospital School.
