2 bedroom cottage for sale

We are pleased to offer this two bedroom (originally three) end of terrace property, built in 1901, on High Street in the sought-after village of Sutton. It has two reception areas, an upstairs shower room and a ground floor wet room with underfloor heating. There is a 'Stiltz' inter-floor personal lift, concealed by design within its own shaft, affording accessibility to all; the lift has been well maintained via an annual service policy, which is transferable.

The property spans over 1010 sq.ft., including a detached garage converted in 2018 into an air-conditioned, sound-proofed music studio/office, which has planning permission for an extension. The boarded loft has potential for conversion, as demonstrated by existing precedents within the terrace and other surrounding homes. The property has oil-fired central heating via an external Grant boiler fitted in 2018, whilst the front reception area has a 'Jetmaster' open fireplace. The property has a refitted kitchen with integrated appliances, plus floor and worktops in matching granite. The ground floor has predominantly solid wood flooring.

There are three well-stocked private gardens, one with an extensive countryside outlook and another with a greenhouse (2021) and insulated summerhouse with light, power and carpet. Beyond the patio area outside the
French doors is a soft resin winding pathway, which is child, pet and wheelchair friendly, leading to a side gate. There is a hardstanding for two vehicles at the rear.

The property benefits from a comprehensive CCTV system (available for inclusion by negotiation) with further capacity for more cameras.
