South Street, Leven, HU17 5NX

An exceptionally well presented and handsome period cottage offering character and good sized rooms which has been upgraded to a very high standard.  The property has been used as a holiday let so there is also the potential to take over the bookings going forward, should the buyer wish.  We believe it will particularly appeal to buyers downsizing who don’t want to compromise on room sizes or comfort.  From the stone flagged ground floor to the exposed beams, luxury kitchen, bathroom and en suite shower room, it has all been finished to an excellent level.  There is no forward chain and early viewing really is essential.

We don’t think you will find many, if any, properties of this type presented to this standard.   As a period terraced cottage, nothing has been spared in the project that our clients undertook to provide the most comfortable holiday let experience they could.  With two generous reception rooms, a spacious and highly appointed kitchen, the two double bedrooms, en suite and house bathroom it was all finished as though they were going to live in it themselves.  There is flagstone flooring to the ground floor and exposed beams. The windows are primarily west facing and despite the cottage feel there is still a feel of good ceiling height.  Whether you are just looking for a home for yourself with character and superb levels of comfort or are interested in a holiday let, this lovely property will have significant appeal.  When you consider the extensive amenities that Leven offers it becomes an even stronger proposition.  With gas fired central heating and uPVC double glazing the accommodation comprises: a spacious Living Room with period style fireplace and exposed beams, a good sized Dining Room with exposed beams and an attractively appointed kitchen with a range of Shaker style units.  To the first floor is a Landing, a Master Bedroom with a superbly fitted Shower Room, a second Double Bedroom and an equally well fitted house Bathroom.  To the rear there is a covered flagged patio garden providing some outside space. 

Our clients have indicated that whether the property is bought for private use or to continue as a holiday let, all the furniture and fittings can be left if required.

The property has been used as a successful holiday let for a number of years but as our clients manage it themselves and wish to travel more, they have decided to offer it for sale, either as a private home or to someone wishing to continue to let it.  It is offered with no forward chain and early viewing is essential to fully appreciate it, but we also offer a 360 degree tour which will provide a useful insight in the first instance.
