The Turnpike, Halam, Newark £239,950

A charming two bedroom semi-detached cottage enjoying a delightful position within the highly regarded village of Halam, with views towards fields and open countryside and offering a wonderful blend of character, comfort and potential. This attractive period home immediately appeals with its traditional brick elevations and inviting frontage, complemented by a private driveway providing off-road parking. Internally, the property retains much of its original charm, most notably within the cosy sitting room where exposed ceiling beams and a feature fireplace create a warm and characterful living space. To the rear, the accommodation flows naturally through from the kitchen to a bright conservatory (with downstairs cloakroom and under floor heating) providing an additional reception area and enjoying pleasant views over the garden — an ideal spot for relaxing or entertaining, particularly in the warmer months. The first floor offers two well-proportioned bedrooms served by a family shower room, with the overall layout perfectly suited to a range of buyers including downsizers, first-time purchasers or those seeking a weekend retreat. Outside, the property enjoys a private rear garden with a good degree of seclusion, and to the front, the aforementioned views towards fields and open countryside. Halam is a particularly sought-after village, known for its strong sense of community and excellent local amenities including a well-regarded primary school, village pub and church. The property also falls within the catchment area for the highly regarded Minster School in nearby Southwell, which offers a wider range of shops, restaurants and services. No onward chain. Viewing strongly recommended.
