2 bed cottage for sale

Church Street, Southwell, Nottinghamshire NG25

Grade II old georgian cottage with original shop with valid class E use...
Cash buyers only


This charming Georgian cottage, once home to The Master Tailor to Southwell Minster, has been tastefully refurbished to a high standard by a Chartered Surveyor couple. Combining both residential and commercial spaces, it presents a unique investment opportunity for cash buyers seeking dual rental income. The property includes a separate Class E ground floor shop, previously a dog groomer and vintage shop, now used as a photographic studio by the current owner. With Class E designation, the space offers a range of potential uses, from a barbershop or artist studio to a café or day nursery. The commercial area can also be easily separated from the residential part. Note cash buyers are required as it is unlikely that a conventional residential mortgage will be granted due to this mixed use. Located in a sought-after village with convenient access to local amenities, the property has a distinctive charm. Upon entering through the lower ground floor, you're welcomed into a spacious utility/office room featuring a striking cast-iron fireplace. Steps lead up to the ground floor, where the former shop front now serves as a dining room/photography set, also boasting a beautiful cast-iron fireplace. The hallway leads to a modern kitchen, where contemporary elements blend with original features like a wooden beam ceiling and another cast-iron fireplace. On the first floor, a large living room with yet another cast-iron fireplace continues the theme of traditional elegance, while across the landing, a stylish three-piece bathroom suite combines modern comfort with the cottage’s timeless appeal. The second floor houses two well-sized double bedrooms, each with its own cast-iron fireplace, adding character and warmth. Outside, the property opens directly onto the street, with a small side stone patio space and steps leading to the main Georgian canopy entrance.
