I think that's a nice relatively inexpensive property for a canal lover.

For a damp, draughty un-modernised cottage that needs at least £50k spending on it and with no vehicular access I think it's a good £100k overpriced.

There are those of us who would read that as "A large cottage, in original condition, unspoilt by the need for modern excesses, out of earshot of traffic."

 

Pity it's too close to the lock to blag a mooring, though.

Agree - Looks solidly built, lots of potential, good position, licence for 2 parking spaces, be interested to see what it goes for.

The details say that a licence for access could be negotiated with the adjacent landowner, though, so it isn't guaranteed.

I wondered about that but this is a farm track and access rights would have to be agreed with the land owner (as confirmed in Agent's details). Normally this would involve a monetary payment.

Sorry for the duplication Carlt beat me to it.

lots of potential

 

The words I most hate to hear in the context of old houses in original condition, especially if said by townies with an "escape to the country" dream and too much money. (Not that I am saying Leo is a townie with too much money. )

Just googled using the postcode provided [NN12 7SW] but the propery advertised and that shown when googled bear no resemblance!

The googled property looks very crowded, don't think I'd like to live there, but the one advertised looks OK just as it is.

 

Edited to add, just found it further up towards the museum, nice situation.

Exciting, mouth-watering, the stuff that dreams are made of - and, for most people, totally blooming impractical!
