Description

This is a unique opportunity to purchase a converted barn and attached cottage in a sought after semi-rural setting with superb views. The barn is well presented throughout with 3 bedrooms and flexible living accommodation whilst the adjacent cottage requires comprehensive modernisation and could provide 2 or 3 bedrooms. This is a superb opportunity for buyers looking for 2 homes next to each other or a property with a supplementary income from letting out next door.

ABOUT 192 & 194 HELME LANE

The property comprises of 2 dwellings at the end of a row 4 properties, these being an end terraced cottage for renovation and a converted barn which sits in the middle of the row. They are of traditional stone built construction under a stone slate roof and have been within the ownership of the same family for over 80 years.

The cottage (192) at the end of the row now requires extensive renovation, our clients have partially stripped the property back to its bare walls and it is ready for the successful purchaser to refurbish to their own tastes. On the ground floor there is an entrance porch, dining kitchen, lounge and large pantry. Steps lead down to a cellar. Upstairs is currently one double bedroom and a large open room – this was originally a double bedroom and bathroom but we feel there is scope to subdivide the space to create 3 bedrooms in total.

The barn (194) was converted by our client in the late 1990s and is well maintained throughout offering spacious accommodation that has to be viewed to be appreciated. It features an entrance lobby giving access into the good sized kitchen which has glazed double doors into a sitting / dining room. A further set of doors from here lead into the large lounge – this has the space and flexibility to accommodate a dining area if required and features a large arched window to the front enjoying the views.

On the first floor there is a galleried landing area overlooking the lounge and arched window. There are 3 bedrooms on this floor. The principle bedroom has its own en-suite shower room whilst bedrooms 2 and 3 are served by the generous house bathroom.

The property is freehold and connected to all mains services with the barn having a gas central heating system and double glazed windows.

Externally there is a concrete driveway leading from the side and in front of the houses providing generous parking. Beyond this is a lawned garden with paved seating area for the barn and a further parking area with lawn serving the cottage.
