For Sale 2 Bed Cottage in Rudheath £144,950

Offering scope for further improvement, this charming detached cottage has been extended and upgraded in recent years and offers both off-road parking and a private rear garden. Retaining some period features including a beamed ceiling to the sitting room, the cottage has a refitted kitchen/breakfast room as well as a separate dining room. Already representing excellent value, the property could offer further potential for extension at first floor, subject to the necessary consents, or could simply benefit from some cosmetic improvement. The cottage comprises sitting room, dining room, fitted kitchen/breakfast room, two double bedrooms and bathroom.
