THE AGENT SAYS... Historic and delightfully characterful, 7 Palmer Street is a wonderful property for those who like quirky homes. The cottage has some lovely features that include: flagstone floors, exposed beams, stunning fireplace, original doors, and wooden floors in the bedrooms. The accommodation is well-proportioned and built-in storage/seating has been added to make the best of the available space. Unusually for a cottage of this age there is an entrance hall separating the sitting room from the front door, which is a great feature to have for comfort and convenience. Outside, there is a sunny, south-facing rear garden.
THE PROPERTY The front door opens to an entrance hall which leads first to the sitting room. This atmospheric room evokes times gone by with its flagstone floor and huge fireplace. The fireplace is a stunning centerpiece and has a woodburning stove at its heart. Either side of the fireplace is useful built-in storage and this room has lovely proportions for placing seating and freestanding furniture.
At the end of the hall is a door which leads through to the kitchen, with the stairs to the first floor enclosed between the two rooms. The kitchen is small but perfectly formed with a range of fitted units, freestanding oven, extractor hood, sink, and additional storage built into the understairs space. Near the entrance door is a window seat which provides useful seating dining space with the addition of a small/wall-mounted table. The kitchen leads out to a small rear hall and the bathroom. The bathroom comprises a unique deep soaking bathtub with shower over, WC, wash basin, and a cupboard sized for a washing machine with the necessary plumbing/drainage/electrics installed. A door from the rear hall leads out to the courtyard and garden beyond.
On the first floor there are two bedrooms. The large main bedroom has beautiful wooden flooring, an attractive fireplace, exposed beams, and alcoves either side of the chimney breast - useful for furniture placement. The second bedroom is a generous single room - a super child's bedroom - or a smaller double guest room. As it is a long room it could work well as a guest room/home office combination.
OUTSIDE There is a side gate at the front of the property providing access to the south-facing rear garden. The alleyway alongside the house is partially covered and could be used for storing a bicycle or similar. The alleyway leads round to a block paved courtyard at the rear of the house, where there is lighting and an outdoor tap. Steps lead up to a decked terrace and then beyond to a small area of lawn, with a planted border along one side. A patio area at the end of the garden captures the evening sun. These various zones create a fantastic blank canvas and the addition of colourful planting and personal touches would create a beautiful space.
SERVICES Mains water, drainage and electricity. Gas-fired central heating.
