This charming and characterful Grade II listed 2 bedroomed cottage has just undergone a programme of modernisation including the installation of a new boiler and central heating system, new fitted kitchen, remedial works, and new flooring. It now offers a gorgeous little home ideal for a single person or professional who would make good use of the close proximity to the train station which is just a stone’s throw away. It has a small, enclosed garden area immediately to the front which is laid with artificial grass and provides space to sit out. There is access onto the canal towpath just a few yards away, and only a short walk down into the village where you will find an array of shops, cafes, bars, restaurants, and a regular bus service.
