House For Sale £225,000
This gorgeous 2 bedroom cottage with a private south facing front garden is set well back off Far Bank with allocated parking for two large cars. With traditional character desired in a cottage, the quaint property has beamed architecture and a well presented basement used as a utility area.
Surrounded by a network of bridle ways and walking routes, Shelley is a picturesque village which appreciates a semi-rural setting with a host of local amentities close to hand. Far Bank is fortunate to have the Methodist Church which is central to the community for local groups to meet and to the top of the bank is the Village Hall which can be used for fetes and private functions. Close to hand is the Shelley sports and social club where sport is televised in beautiful scenery where friends and family can collectively gather to enjoy the game!
Shelley first school for children aged between 4-10 years is a well regarded educational facility only 3 minutes walk from the cottage whilst Shelley College is a coeducational upper school and sixth form on the border between the villages of Shelley and Skelmanthorpe.
Entrance porch 5' 9" x 4' 8" (1.75m x 1.42m) The porch is a great station to remove outwear before moving on into the main property. The porch with ceramic easy clean flooring has a window which draws in natural ambience and a door leading into the sitting room.
Sitting room 16' 5"(reducing to 15'7") x 10' 7" (5m x 3.23m) The sitting room is adorned with an abundance of character including carpeted stone steps, beamed architecture and a beautiful timber fire surround.
A spacious light filled room accommodating large family seating and additional furniture. Chrome and wooden banisters enhance the half turn staircase leading to the first floor whilst timber cottage door opens into the kitchen.
The room is equipped with a window seat which further adds to the appeal of this lovely property.
Kitchen 13' 4" x 5' 7" (4.06m x 1.7m) The kitchen with cream cabinets is decorated with a roll top work surface with stainless steel sink and drainer with swan neck mixer tap. Tiled in terracotta and cream with a Mediterranean feel, the room is installed with a 4 ring gas hob and electric oven with space for an under counter fridge freezer.
Spacious enough to accommodate a 2 seater breakfast table, the cabinets have included a wine rack and the property enjoys the benefits of a utility room in the basement.
Utility room 7' 9" x 7' 3" (2.36m x 2.21m) White washed and presented to a lovely standard, the basement utility room looks like a cosy bistro in the Mediterranean. A great extension to the cottage allowing for household laundry duties to be separated from the main house, the utility room has plumbing for a washing machine and further space for additional white goods. With wooden effect work surface, the basement has a ceramic sink.
Landing The first floor landing leads to two bedrooms and the house bathroom. We have been advised that the attic is boarded out for additional storage facilities.
Bedroom one 11' 5" x 9' 2"(reducing to 8'6") (3.48m x 2.79m) The bedroom with contrasting papered and painted walls is incredibly elegant and accommodates a king bed and free standing furniture. With large window overlooking the garden, the room is a well ventilated, spacious bedroom.
Bedroom two 11' 4"(reducing to 8'7") x 7' 1" (3.45m x 2.16m) The second bedroom is presented with a similar stylish flair and currently supports a single bed. A generous single or smaller double room, carpeted and facing the south elevation.
House bathroom A good sized bathroom with bath with rear fed electric Gainsborough shower above, wash basin with pedestal and low level w.c. Decorated with mosaic tiled aspect and aqua shaded walls, the room feels fresh and bright.
Exterior The property has two large parking spaces positioned before the fenced private gardens. Set well back from Far Bank with a south facing elevation, the garden is a beautifully dressed space to sit back and enjoy the sunshine. Predominately pebbled with floral borders, the garden is a great introduction to the gorgeous cottage.
