This detached stone cottage is presented with significant appeal, described as 'rarely available' and 'unique'. Its private, secluded setting within a sought-after village, combined with a good level of modernisation and positive location attributes relative to the local market, are strong selling points. However, its internal living space is more modest when compared to some other properties available at a similar price point. The valuation hinges on the premium that its distinct character, exclusivity, and desirable location can command. While some buyers may prioritize square footage, others will be drawn to these unique qualities. The current asking price appears to factor in these less tangible but highly valued aspects, suggesting the agent anticipates strong interest based on its special appeal.
The property is on average £31,417 more expensive than similar properties in the area

Environmental Factors

The property is situated on or near 'Hough,' a lane in Northowram, suggesting a location with significantly reduced traffic volume and noise pollution compared to properties on main roads.
The location in Northowram, surrounded by fields and green spaces as visible in the general area of 'Hough,' offers excellent access to countryside, likely providing pleasant views and opportunities for outdoor recreation.
'Hough' appears to be a relatively narrow lane in places, which could present minor inconveniences for vehicular access, parking, or turning, particularly for larger vehicles or during busy periods.
