Description
Grade II Listed, pretty stone built extended mid terraced cottage in popular Barrowby village. With three double bedrooms, two receptions, a large garden and parking, it's got it all. If you crave character, facilities and easy access to London Kings Cross, here it is!

This characterful, double fronted, mid terraced cottage is full of charm. It has two generous reception rooms, one with multi-fuel stove, a downstairs WC, an inner hall with storage, and a breakfast room open to a galley kitchen with integrated appliances. Upstairs are three good double bedrooms, two with built in storage, and a generous family bathroom.

A gated front garden provides curb appeal but the main event is to the rear where there is a private courtyard with stone built workshop and a garden path leading to a driveway which will accommodate two vehicles. Beyond is an enormous rear garden with greenhouse, pond and vegetable patch plus oodles of lovely lawn and mature trees. What a find!

Circa 1820, this lovely home sits on approximately quarter of an acre, has thick walls with deep window sills, single glazing, beamed ceilings and some original doors. The kitchen/breakfast room is an extension to the original cottage and there is some work required to replace the bathroom and upgrade the carpets. This is however, spacious living in a highly popular village and will make someone an amazing family home.
