Occupying an enviable set-back position in the very heart of the ever-popular village of Upton, this charming two-bedroom mid-terraced cottage offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a home that is ready to move straight into. Neutrally presented throughout in light, tasteful tones and offered to the market with the added benefit of NO ONWARD CHAIN, this delightful property is perfectly suited to homeowners and buy-to-let investors alike. The property is approached via a generous private frontage, featuring a block-paved driveway providing off-road parking comfortably for two vehicles side by side. A shaped pathway, flanked by attractive slate chipping borders, leads to the front entrance, with the frontage enclosed by recently installed fencing and mature hedging, creating an appealing first impression. A UPVC double glazed entrance door with decorative stained glass insert opens into a practical entrance porch, ideal for coats and muddy boots, before leading through to the welcoming living room. Rich in character, this inviting reception room centres around an exposed brick fireplace incorporating a raised stone hearth, living flame gas fire and an exposed timber beam mantel, creating a warm and cosy focal point. To the rear of the property lies the well-appointed dining kitchen, fitted with an attractive L-shaped range of cream shaker-style wall and base units complemented by stone-effect laminate work surfaces with matching upstands. The kitchen incorporates a 1½ bowl stainless steel sink and drainer with tiled splashbacks, an integrated tower-style double electric oven and grill, inset four-ring induction hob with a stainless steel and glass extractor canopy above, together with plumbing for a dishwasher and space for a freestanding fridge/freezer. The tiled flooring continues throughout, whilst the dining area provides an ideal space for everyday living and entertaining. Positioned off the dining area is a particularly useful understairs WC/cloakroom, which also provides a practical utility area. A rear external door gives direct access to the enclosed courtyard garden. To the first floor, the landing provides access to two well-proportioned bedrooms and the shower room. The principal bedroom enjoys a front-facing aspect and benefits from an impressive ceiling height, enhanced by an exposed timber beam which adds further character, together with a built-in wardrobe. The second bedroom overlooks the rear courtyard and features fitted wardrobe storage, useful over-stairs storage and a cupboard housing the gas-fired combination central heating boiler. Serving both bedrooms is the well-presented shower room, appointed with a modern white three-piece suite comprising a corner shower enclosure, pedestal wash hand basin and low-level WC. The room is complemented by a heated towel rail, tiled walls and a skylight, allowing an abundance of natural light to flood the space. The property benefits from UPVC double glazing, gas-fired central heating, is connected to all mains services and is offered with freehold tenure. Externally, the enclosed rear courtyard has been designed for ease of maintenance, with brick walling topped by fencing creating a good degree of privacy. There is space for a garden storage shed, together with a stable-style rear gate providing convenient pedestrian access.
