The two-bedroom, one-bathroom house is on the market with estate agent Purplebricks for £290,000.
In the listing, Purplebricks said the cottage "has recently undergone a no expense spared renovation" and would be "perfect for a range of buyers" such as "downsizers, first time buyers or small families".
The downstairs living area has a quirky shape but has been opened up to maximise space and has a number of charming period features.
These include exposed beams, stone feature walls, a log burner, bare brick fire surrounds and tall windows. The classic décor includes neutral colours and hardwood furniture, offset by statement sofas in a rich blue.
The kitchen/diner is at the rear of the property and features a statement brick wall and patio doors leading out into the generous garden.
Upstairs, the cosy bedrooms also feature exposed beams and are a decent size. The master even includes its own dressing room.
House prices in New Brighton are on the up. According to Rightmove, the overall average in the last year was £226,268.
The figure is 9% higher than the previous 12 months and a massive 26% up on the 2019 peak of £179,667.
