1 Bakers Place is a charming cottage presented in liveable condition but requiring renovation and modernisation throughout. The property is a good size but the current layout doesn't make the best of this, particularly on the first floor, where reconfiguration could easily create an additional bedroom. Downstairs the kitchen is small but the adjoining sitting room is large and there is plenty of scope to create a larger kitchen, kitchen/dining room, or more open plan space, if desired.
THE PROPERTY
Entering the property, the dining room is on the right. This is a lovely, south-facing room, filled with warm light. The fireplace (open fire) is an attractive focal point, flanked by deep alcoves that are perfect for built-in storage. The entrance hall continues to the rear of the cottage (a lobby separates access to the garden) and turns in a L-shape to the rest of the living accommodation.
The sitting room also faces south and is a large room with exposed beams, a wood burning stove, and a tall built-in storage cupboard. At the rear of the cottage is the kitchen which is small but functional and benefits from a view over the rear garden. Enlarging the kitchen and adding doors (if possible) out to the garden would transform the feel of the cottage.
A wide, winding staircase rises to the first floor where there are two generous double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The current bathroom has an abundance of wasted space and there is great potential to use this extra space in a reconguration of the first floor to create three bedrooms and an improved family bathroom. There may also be an opportunity to create a ground floor WC as the rear hallway is large and there is space under the stairs (currently used for a small fridge-freezer and storage).
OUTSIDE
The cottage is slightly elevated, with a few steps from the pavement to the front door and a small, lawned front garden. The rear garden is fully enclosed by fencing and walling. It is laid to lawn with hardstanding outside the house and further areas under the side wall. There is pedestrian access alongside the house from front to back.
SERVICES
Mains water, drainage and electricity. Heating via wood burning stove, open fire and some electric heaters.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on July 30, 2022
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on July 30, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
