This stone-built end-terrace cottage sits in a much-loved Whitehough location with open-field views to the front and rear. The property offers a dual-aspect lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms across a compact two-storey layout — ideal for a first home, holiday base or rental let.
The setting is a major draw: peaceful, semi-rural streets, immediate access to countryside walks and good train links from Chinley to Manchester and Sheffield. Front, side and rear gardens give private outdoor space, while the side garden looks directly onto open pasture.
Buyers should note the cottage’s modest internal footprint and small plot size — best suited to a single household or couple. The house shows traditional construction with likely limited wall insulation and older double glazing (pre-2002); there are signs of potential damp in stonework areas which should be inspected. Flood risk is rated medium; services have not been tested and any purchaser should obtain professional surveys.
Overall this property offers character, outlook and a desirable village location. With light updating and attention to insulation and any damp issues, it presents clear potential as a comfortable first home or a countryside let for those seeking outdoor access and good transport links.
