The Property
2 Piper Close Cottages is a wonderful stone and brick-built cottage, believed to have been built in the early 1900’s, brimming with character and offering parking and gardens, and on the outskirts of Corbridge, within easy walking distance of all of the amenities the village has to offer. The property has been rewired, fitted with a new gas-fired Baxi boiler and new electric Mira showering August 2023 bringing peace of mind and added value.
The front door opens into a small hall with the stairs to the first floor straight ahead and a glazed door into the well-proportioned sitting room with wood paneling and an impressive stone and brick fireplace with wood burning stove. There is also a built-in storage cupboard. Two doors lead off the sitting room; one to the bathroom fitted with bath and shower above, wash hand basin and WC, and a large rear porch that the current owners use as an excellent utility room with a washing machine and separate tumble dryer. The second door opens into the kitchen, which has a good range of wooden wall and floor units and appliances including an integrated electric hob, a dishwasher and fridge. A freezer is tucked away in a cupboard within the sitting room and all of the white goods are included with the property. The kitchen is open to a fantastic glazed garden room that would make a lovely place to sit and eat or relax. French doors open into the rear garden.
To the first floor are two bedrooms, the principal bedroom having an en-suite WC and basin.
Externally
2 Piper Close Cottage benefits from a gated gravel driveway and parking, and a lovely lawn to the front of the house. With independent side access, the rear garden is a well-maintained paved and gravel courtyard with wooden storage shed.
