THE PROPERTY
Chain-Free (Proceedable) Buyers Only, Please Call to View | A particular delight of The Hill is its many unique historic homes - this quirky 'upside-down' cottage being one of them. Located on Roxeth Hill but also accessible from the village via West Hill, this interesting detached property now requires general refurbishment.
Named 'The Studio' quite probably due to the upstairs living space featuring a tall North-facing feature window for natural light, this comfortable room is undoubtedly the most appealing part of the property with a good size separate kitchen adjacent.
You enter the property from either front or rear with a paved walled garden area to the side and small front yard. The ground floor accommodation then comprises; Entrance hall to front and Vestibule to rear, with 2 Bedrooms and an En-Suite Bathroom to one of these.
Additionally the house has gas-fired central heating and is of traditional construction, being brick under a tiled roof. It's history is unknown, but there are some interesting brickwork features to be seen. Outside is a decent-size garden area with potential, and the present owner parks in the private road behind. Please call us to discuss this house further and see if it suits your needs.
