It is well presented throughout and briefly consists of an entrance with Yorkshire stone flagged floor with exposed brick wall, the staircase to the first floor in front, and to the left the reception room with exposed beams and feature fireplace with oak surround and mantle. There is a second sitting room/dining room also with a large stone feature fireplace, wood burner and exposed beams, this room is adjacent to the kitchen which has a door to a useful vaulted cellar, exposed beams, modern appliances, a glazed door to the walled gardens and a door at the rear to the downstairs cloakroom with WC, with plumbing for a washing machine. The first floor comprises three double bedrooms, two with exposed beams including the generous principal bedroom, and feature fireplaces and a modern family shower room.

Behind the five-bar gate access to Rose Cottage is parking for several cars, beyond the parking is the beautiful and private walled garden with spacious deck and lawn which benefits from the sun all day through the summer months. There is a greenhouse, pretty, colourful raised floral beds, mature trees, well established borders, a stone-built barbeque with power points and there are three brick-built storage sheds.

All the chimneys have recently been ground-out and repointed and the roof overhauled.

The next steps...

Establish funds

How will you fund the purchase?

Before making an offer on a property you will want to consider your financial situation, your income and outgoings.

Will you finance the purchase of your next property from the sale of an existing property which can put you in a chain, arrange a mortgage through your bank or buy the property outright.

To help you finance your next property purchase, we have a long established relationship with an independent mortgage broker who can discuss your situation with you.

Remember that having a 'mortgage decision in principle' can make you a more attractive buyer when you make an offer on a property. Contact our mortgage advisers for free, no obligation and impartial advice.

Some advantages of a broker are:

They do all the legwork for you, working on your behalf with the lender
They compare wholesale mortgage rates from a large number of banks and lenders all at once
Their wholesale interest rates can be lower than retail (bank branch) interest rates
They offer more loan options because they work with numerous banks and lenders
They can finance tricky deals because of their knowledge and various lending partners
They are typically easier to get in contact with, and are less bureaucratic.

However advantages of working with your bank are:

You may be able to build off an existing relationship (and gain discounts if you have a checking or savings account)
You may already know the banker who will handle your mortgage
Banks may be more accountable than a smaller shop
They may offer lower interest rates in some cases
Their ability to add mortgage to existing banking profile and make automatic payments from linked account.
